Three cheers for our pal grantyg
And his kite cam photographee
He shares his bird's eye view
With the likes of me and you
Looking down over land and sea.

Welcome back grantyg! Great to see you posting more of your superb kite cam pics! :D

Wonderful pics, Grantyg. Next time I come north I must look you up and get some advice - I love the perspective!

Thanks again for the comments - glad that every one is enjoying them!

Just to answer a few questions
Camera is an ixus 800is
Triggering the camera is done by remote control - as is movement etc -

And I`m based in central scotland so I only get up north at Xmas and easter.
Any suggestions for sites to take pics of drop me a PM!
