Low Level Aerial Photography

Low Level Aerial Photography, originally uploaded by A1 LAPP.

Located in Dorset, we primarily cover the South of England, but can undertake projects nationwide. The system we use is a 50ft telescopic mast to elevate a camera at the desired height, controlled from a laptop at ground level, which enables the capture of images from a wide area, making it suitable for a variety of services.

Why the Poppy?
A writer first made the connection between the poppy and battlefield deaths during the Napoleonic wars of the early 19th century, remarking that fields that were barren before battle exploded with the blood-red flowers after the fighting ended.

Higher Ansty - Dorset

Estate Agent job: Call on the Friday to photograph a cottage in Higher Ansty. Checked with the Met office and the best day was Sunday. Saturday it started off wet but cleared up by the afternoon. Sunday started off with blue skies and then started to get cloudy. I had arranged with the client I would photograph at 2ish. The clocks had gone back an hour on Saturday night. Lucky I turned up at 1:30 by 2:30 it went over cast and spits of rain.

Melbury Downs - Dorset

On a return trip from North Dorset I noticed this field of poppies. Late afternoon there was many people still out walking. Never knew poppies were out this time of year. In the distance towards Blandford there was another field of poppies.

Mapperton Gardens - Dorset

Mapperton Gardens:Mapperton´s terraced valley gardens surround the delightful Tudor/Jacobean manor house, stable blocks, dovecote and All Saints Church. On the upper levels, a walled croquet lawn, then the orangery, an ornate pavilion overlooking the Italianate formal garden with fountains, topiary, grottoes, ponds and herbaceous borders. Below, a 17th century summer house, hedged fishponds, topiary and borders.

LLAP - Horton Tower - Dorset

The unique landmark of Horton Tower rises high above the woods and fields. Built in 1750 by Humphrey Sturt, it was used as an observatory to watch the movement of deer.
