Aerial Photos of Los Altos and Mountain View, CA
October 15, 2000

All photos have two enlargements; One is just an enlargement and the other is an enlargement with landmarks pointed out.

I'm actually pretty amazed at what kind of resolution one can acheive with basic 35 MM camera equipment. Some of these pictures show objects that are only 3-6 inches wide, from 1200'-1400' in the air, depending how still I could hold the camera and the contrast of the object compared to it's surroundings. Not bad. I'd like to try a medium or large format camera on a clearer day...

Photos taken with a Konica Autoreflex TC camera and Kodak film.
