sobo Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 OK, I'm not that familiar with the heights of summits in the immediate vicinity of Foraker, but from the photographer's perspective, it would seem that the Blackhawk has a few meters left to go to claim the "summit" (i.e., the camera seems to be above the chopper). Either that, or the photographer is on Denali and has got one helluva telephoto! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_Husbands Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 that looks like the summit. i assume the hoto is from the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobo Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 AH! A fly-by shooting! Good point. Why didn't I think of that? Getting more stupid by the day in my old age and fatherhood... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
