High as a Kite - Stunning Aerial Photos

Make Magazine presents UC Berkeley's professor of architecture, Cris Benton.

From Make, "Cris is a leader in the aerial kite photography community, constantly developing new ways to rig remotely controlled cameras to customized kites for stunning results."

Kite aerial photography is the technique of using kites to lift cameras to take photographs. The process is a lot of fun and yields beautiful results.
