    Post your odd camera positions......

    From like 10 years ago at Quarai. With my faithful dog Ellie and faithful assistant Jim Hunter. 47XL on 4x5 and my modified Calumet Widefield.

    I don't have the footage because it doesn't belong to me, but on a documentary I hung in a harness about 10 meters down from the edge of a volcano caldera to shoot the boiling slurry of ash and hydrochloric acid.

    Atop a water tank to photograph the Turqoise Trail Elementary School. Not a hard shot, but climbing the ladder on the side of the tank was tricky carrying a 4x5 and tripod.

    Haven't seen or talked to you in ages. What were you shooting at TTE? Last fall I shot some additions to the school for the architect.

    Hope the client didn’t find you lying down on the job!

    BTW, looks like you’re in the ruins of Spanish church there.

    Maybe where the altar stood.
