Kite and camera setup. The Picavet suspension is normally attached 50 to 100 feet
(15-30 m) below the Sutton Flowform 16. The camera is housed in a cradle secured to the
suspension about 5 feet (1½ m) beneath the kite line. This arrangement helps to protect
the camera from line vibrations and sudden movements of the kite. Photo © J.S. Aber.
