A few weeks ago I did a sortie around my son's school in Witney. Was very windy and a bit hazy, but the flights went well. I took a little over 100 images and a few were worth keeping. Unfortunately, I idiotically had the camera on the lowest resolution settings of 600x480 so they're perfect for the web, but rather crap for printing  :'( Which means I'll have to do it again sometime.

Anyway, here's a couple of shots...







I quite like the new layout, but it's forced me to think of a new signature. :(

Rather good shots there Alex, what camera and interface are you using?

The brain is a wonderful organ. It starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office.

Thanks Tony

My usual setup. Nikon coolpix 3700 and a micro servo hot glued on for shutter release. Mounted with rubber bands in sideways configuration on my EasyStar.

The same Heath Robinson setup from this thread...
AP/AV setups. Here's mine what about yours?

Camera set in landscape mode to force focus to infinity and reduce shutter lag. It needs a reasonably bright day to get fast enough shutter speed to avoid blurring.
