Here are a couple of images. The F16 was shot on Ektachrome with a Rollie 3003 and probably an 85 Planar. Can't remember exactly details. The DC3 was Fuji Provia if I remember correctly and Pentax 6x7 and think it was either my 105 or 135. The final image was shot with a Canon 1DsII if I remember correctly and 70-200 L f2.8

Here are a couple from my Phantom 3.

I've got a few images I'll try to scan tomorrow that I'll bet no one has ever seen anything like. I worked for a research firm doing aerial research work just after college. Part if my job was doing thermal imagery with an analog thermal line scanner. It looked much like a dental xray head and was mounted in the belly of our aircraft. It used liquid nitrogen to cool the IR sensors and had a rotating wedge shaped mirror that scanned the terrain as we flew. It saw only IR of specific wavelengths depending on the sensor we were using. We often flw at night to eliminate solar heating influence. All the data was recorded on analog 1/4" tape and then translated to 70mm film in the lab. We could do thermal slices / profiles of our subject and measure temperature differences of 1/2 degree f. Ee studdied terrain temps around hydro dams to detect sinkholes or places where water may be moving underground and causing problems. We also studied thermal mixing of cooling water from fosile fulecpower plants that's discharged in rivers and lakes. The imagery is unique and I'll try to post some.

Please excuse the small images. I posted them from my phone.
