Aerial Photography Camera
|
I wanted to buld an aerial photography camera out of the rotating magnification lenses that I had, but I needed a reason to use this camera. Aha, the radio towers west of town. I set to building my camera. |
It was a simple design really. I just took my Holga 120S automatic camera and attached it to a series of rotating lenses that could magnify the image I wish to capture more than the standard lens. Then I took to the tower. It was a long climb up to the clouds, but it was worth it. Every minute that I spent holding on to that massive apparatus miles above the territory I usually call home reaffirmed that I am the one who sustains my own life as I create my own experience. The climb was a succes. Although I wasn't able to magnify the image as much as I would have liked, I got a great shot of the city. |
