Hello Carl
that was my first approach last year february. In April I had
another chance to have the crane configured for maximum hight and
I used another approach:
from the now already seen basket I made four shots in all 4
direction simply standing in the basket ( see crane shadow...) and
one nadir sticking the cam by my arm below the basket ( over the
basket floor rim )
here the result: <http://homepage.mac.com/wkaemena/FS/100m_2/> with
that distance to the ground/objects parallax errors are without
any importance.
