Local Photographer – Marcus Hunt’s

Marcus Hunt has rigged together an amazing radio controlled camera set up with a kite which allows him to capture photos of local places in and around Portsmouth with a unique perspective. Unlike photos from aeroplanes, the kite allows for photos from low altitudes giving way more detail. To see loads more than the photos below be sure to spend some time looking through Marcus’ Kite photo Flickr set.

    I think the top one is my favourite, really does look like an architectural plan, lots of interesting lines and angles.

    My Dad tried something similar 30 odd years ago with a kite and a Brownie camera he’d owned since his youth. I remember there being an extra wire for the pulling of the button. No idea if there were any decent results, though.
