Feel free to download and use the images. All I ask is that you give me credit for the photos.
If the photos are utilized in any publications, I would love to see the final product.
The camera shoots wide angle, but the “fisheye” effect can be removed with some fairly simple image processing. Enjoy!
I’m starting to work in some flights as I head out on various errands. On January 20th, I was meeting a group of friends for lunch at a restaurant in Hunt Valley, MD. I went up to Google maps to see if I could find a field close to the nearby Cockeysville quarry to launch the Phantom. The quarry is famous for the marble used in the Washington Monument in DC and the thousands of marble steps in front of Baltimore’s famous row houses. I found a great open space between the Quarry and a Lowe’s parking lot I was familiar with. I went out into the field, passing by an small homeless encampment.
Wonderful shot of the Quarry from about 250′. Looking directly west.
Starting to pan counterclockwise. Beaver Dam Road is in the foreground.
Looking southeast. The Lowe’s parking lot is in the center of the image. In the bottom left quadrant, you can see a small homeless encampment.
Looking north toward Hunt Valley and the York Rd. commercial corridor.
