This is relatively low altitude view taken from about 400 feet. Normally
I choose to come in close to the land in my pictures, but being that
this area is famous for the surf I decided to make the ocean and the
surfers the foreground of the picture. Viewed
at full resolution you can actually see a surfer catching a wave.
On this particular day it was difficult for the helicopter to stay still
so that I could accurately shoot the photos for a large panorama. What
we had to do instead was to circle around and try to come to the same
spot going very slowly as I shot the pictures. We repeated this about
5 times just to make sure that I had all the photos I needed for the
picture. In total I shot about 600 photos but ended up using only about
80. The resolution of the final picture is 23,857 X 8,574
making this a giant 200 Megapixel picture with great detail and lots
too look at. In fact the two surfers in the picture to the right actually
recognized themselves when I displayed a huge print at the local Farmer's
Market

This picture looks great on Canvas and is an affordable way to have
a mural size print. Contact me by email (rafaelstudio22@gmail.com) for
a quote on a large canvas print. Every print I sell helps me get closer
to my goal of photographing the entire San Diego Coastline.
