Getting the Shot: Going Even Higher

In March we posted about being able to get a shot thanks to the tripod's flexible range. Last week the tripod made a difficult shot possible by providing much needed extra height.

To photograph the rear facade of the above group of townhouses in Northern Liberties, Greg wanted to get the camera at a high enough angle to see past the fence and into the first story of the homes.

Above we can see that the tripod nearly completely extended, and that Greg needed to perch himsef on a ladder to operate the camera.

Next we got closer to the fence to get a shot overlooking the home's backyard.

Greg found himself needing a bit of extra height.
