Sorry, Neo

Post #618 has beaten you, since his is a scale model photo.

Do you have any photos of less than full scale aircraft?

White shirts....as in an inability to 'get down' on the ground and take a shot with the camera lens at 6 inches height?

Yes, that could be a limiting factor!

some have other reasons why when they lay down their still 4' off the floor, but i couldn't possibly be so rude about the American diet, theres also the risk of not getting back up again lol
my shot above was done whilst avoiding sheep and cow gifts. avoiding getting them in shot too.
lots of scale type photos of a non scale plane here www.philsrcworld2.fsnet.co.uk/capichepics.htm

Great 'scale' shot of your plane, Phil

About gopher's-eye height. A fresh trim on the grass is so important, too.

bit of cheating on this pre trim shot..

now back to the real tallent, scale building and phototaking. the photos require almost as much skill as the building to get it right

I'm impressed with that 'cheater' shot nevertheless.

You got your size right and the angle of your shadow to match the plane's. Great photoshop work!

And what spectacular weather you had that day. Did you manage to get everything packed up before the rain hit?
