For those on this list who attended last month's SLAS General Meeting featuring Jonathan Adams and his high altitude balloon aerial photography, here's some pictures along the same line that were taken by one of my financial advisors. Obviously this is becoming the latest hobby. http://picasaweb.google.com/thomkhall/BalloonLaunchHighlights?authkey=Gv1sRg...
That's pretty cool. I'm going to do a smaller scale launch here soon. I'm going to connect a camera to a dozen ballons, and tie it all to my fishing rod. Then let it go. This way, I can do it here in Bountiful and retrieve the camera pretty easily. I'll just put the camera on movie record, and let it go. ++++++++++++++++++ Troy Davidson www.istroyworking.com On Tue, Sep 14, 2010 at 8:55 AM, M Wilson <astro_outwest@yahoo.com> wrote:

Hmmmmmmmmmmm. He is in Ogden. He has some interesting stuff listed. I'm most drawn to the Humpty Dumpty cookie jar.

Best I can do is "camera-on-a-stick". Just use a monopod and the IR remote switch. You don't lose your camera, unless you drop it. DT http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=3189 --- On Tue, 9/14/10, Troy Davidson <clandaith@gmail.com> wrote:
