Pictures from the Mk I camera

The Sun (bearing of 140º)   Willington Power Station with a trail of steam running left (bearing of 238º)    Goal posts in left hand picture below (bearing of 280º)   360º view of launch site one - composite of ten photos. The following pictures were taken from the 6 litre rocket.
Goal posts and a view over the central hill towards the second launch site with Sinfin in the distance.	View, very slightly to the right of the one on the left and from a little higher up. The Large warehouses, the TA and some other industrialised areas are in the distance just in front of the (hidden) Derby to Birmingham Intercity railway line.

Approx 250º view of launch site two, looking north - composite of seven photos. The following pictures were taken from a 2 litre rocket.
View, northwards, towards the trees that the rocket almost ended up in.	View, southwards, (note the position of the sun). With more sky than ground, and the fields being so flat, it is difficult to make anything out in this one. Clouds look nice though.

Generally speaking, although they give a different perspective on water rocketry, I was not happy with the quality of the photographs with regard to blurring (although the camera gave good results hand-held - the panoramic views were taken with the same camera). The Mark II Aerial Camera will be different.
