More arial pics

Here's mine. I took these myself...job perk.

Gratuitious shot of the trusty steed.

Nice pic. Those trees must be following a drainage of some sort? Where are you located ?

Here's my shots. The house is in the center of three fields. You can see the hay bails. Closer up shot is house and west field by the road.

Here's mine-- Lakes Region of New Hampshire from a T-6. Newfound lake.

Buzzed right over your house on that trip, Thomas! (My brother lives on Eagle Ridge road- apparently, the T-6 is rather loud, coming out of a dive at 170+ knots....)

@irvingj: Nice. I do miss New England and it's landscape. I also really like your "tripod" for the shot.

Sadly I do not have ready access to a plan or chopper. Does anyone know how to copy photos from google maps sattelite or any service like that?

Couple different ways I think. One way is to hit the PRT SCR button on your keyboard, that takes a snapshot of what your monitor is displaying and puts it in your "clipboard", then go to MS PAINT or a photo editing software and paste it. Save as a filename then upload like any photo. I think Google earth has an option where you can save the current view as a file. Google maps you would have to use like I said above, unless there is a save as file option Im not aware of.

I can't fly but here is the Google Earth picture of my place in Brittany. The grey/brown right half of the photo is our side of the Atlantic ocean, apparently taken at low tide.

I am feeling left out here too Jimmy! No chopper, no plane. Last time I looked at google maps, our house wasn't even there! I don't exist

That looks like a nice location. Presumably, you are on the west side of an inlet, because the Atlantic should be to the left of your photo

Just kidding.

Is that a tidal basin sort of waterway? I imagine it is full of saltwater critters.
