Summary

[edit]
Description
English: In 1906 George. R. Lawrence (1869-1938) showed the world the compelling beauty of the aerial view. Lawrence used a train of nine large kites to lift a moving slit panoramic camera that weighed 49 pounds and rose to a height of 2000 feet.
Čeština: Lawrence použil vlečnou soupravu devíti velkých draků, aby minimalizoval pohyb štěrbinové panoramatické kamery, která vážila 49 liber (asi 25 kg) a dosáhla výšky 2000 stop (609,6 metru). George Raymond Lawrence (24. února 1868 - 15. prosince 1938) byl komerční fotograf severní Illinois. Po mnoha letech zkušeností s výrobou draků a balónů pro letecké panoramatické fotografie Lawrence přešel v roce 1910 na letecký design.
