Kite Aerial Photography

These pages provide a quick tour of the edge of San Francisco Bay as seen from a kite-lofted camera. The sampler was assembled as a vehicle for discussing application of this novel, low-cost form of documentation in contemporary wetlands restoration projects (see introduction).

A Key Map for the photographs is available.

Explanatory note. This page was created using Photoshop 7.0's Web Gallery script. The script handles the resizing, sharpening, and equalization of the images automatically. While this is certainly convenient for your author the results are not quite as nice as custom processing.
