Caption
Nesling between woods and the Firth of Forth estuary the sleepy village of Limekilns clings on to the shore.

The village dates from the 14th century. Whilst there is some evidence of the production of lime, the village's neighbour Charlestown set about it in an industrial way leaving Limekilns itself as a quieter fishing village, with a small harbour and soap works.

Today this activity to has gone, leaving a picturesque coastal village.

Precision is: High. Pinpoints the exact spot.

Equipment
4 GoPro HERO2 cameras, with a prototype camera cradle/rig, triggered by 4 gentWIRE camera syncronisers. Suspended below a Dan Leigh Cruiser kite with 8ft/2.5m span.

This technique produces two hemispheres, and a different workflow in PTGui from the classic ground pano technique. This results in extra effort BUT impossible angles!

See the rig, how Kite Aerial Photography is achieved, and the workflow.
