Aerial photography is technically defined as the process of taking pictures from an elevated position. We normally assume that an aerial photographer will be using some type of aircraft to assist in recording these images. But a kite?
Scott Haefner is a professional photographer and web designer based in the San Francisco Bay area. He primarily shoots urban and scenic landscapes, as well as kite-lofted aerial photos.
At an International Kite Aerial Photography Conference in November 2002, Scott was recognized as the “Most Promising New KAPer.” In addition, Scott’s work has been published in numerous magazines, newspapers, and books, including the San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times, BBC News, Photo Techniques, and Photo District News, as well as specials on the Discovery and History Channels.

Kite? It’s so cool! I thought it was photographed on a helicopter.

That is really cool! I could look at cities and towns all day especially from up here. I am attracted to city skylines and downtowns for some strange reason.
Where could I take a photo like this at Chincoteague, Virginia? Maybe the Chincoteague Bear Factory.
