KAP (Kite Aerial Photography)

Yeah, nice photos Mike.
I especially like when the kite isn't to high up. It's like an "angels point of view" (or bird). If you are too high, it might look like it was from a plane.

Awesome idea -- I really want to try this now!

oh man, I would love to see these with the tilt shift effect.

I hope you don't mind, I went ahead and made one look tilt shift.

ok, I was having fun and could not stop

I am really interested in KAP and wondering what is a good kit to start out with on the lower price end of things. I want to try this but I also don't want to invest a lot of money into it until I decide if it is something that I want to do.

Any suggestions?

how to start and whear can we buy the kite

In the words of a former drummer of mine: Craaaaaazy ****!

Very cool!!!

very cool idea! i'd be scared to send my camera up there with the kite, haha.

just thought I'd bring this thread to life again I just bought a KAP kit and am getting ready to send my camera out on it's virgin voyage!

I'd like to hear where you got your kit and what camera you plan to fly.

Come on!! Can't somebody post set up info? These are definitely cool shots BTW. I had to LOL a little on the tilt shift ones.

Great approach, very scary to me, but I enjoy seeing your results. The tilt shift edits are fun too!
