Wave at North Beach, Pt. Reyes
This photograph and most of the others I have posted on Photo.net are taken from kite-lofted cameras. A kite, unseen in the image, supports a small, radio-controlled cradle that holds the camera. I can position the camera by walking around and/or letting out or retrieving kite line. I aim the camera and fire its shutter using the radio while I stay at the ground end of the kite line. The camera can rotate through the compass, tilt from horizon to nadir, and change from portrait to landscape format. I compose my images by watching the camera and imagining what it would see. The whole process entertains me to no end.
