Image Information:

The assignment involved near vertical images from various altitudes plus pictorial oblique aspects as we climbed up and up. My wife Susan assisted me, coping with my having the Helicopter, with its rear door removed, tilting almost on its side at 8000 feet, so this image could be taken!...

To get the best possible shots we waited seven weeks for just one hour of flight time, waiting for the perfect atmospheric condtions, such as air moisture, pollution haze levels and sun angle as well as fitting in with Mascot's flight paths.
