NOTE: If you haven't ever seen a pole system, I recommend taking a look at Lee Jink's artice on the Evolution of His PAP System. You might also look at my recent article on when to take pole pics and when not to take them.
I love taking pool pictures with our pole camera. They are some of the most fun pictures to take because the surroundings are usually great and the water and sky makes for great pictures. So I thought I would just share a few of our pool pole pics! (Say that 3 times really fast.)
The first one is the pool at a restricted club. With my quick-connect painter poles, I was able to get in and out of the pool area before anyone made a complaint (not that it would have been a big deal anyway).
Is that an incredible setting or what? The pole helped craft the total setting. The camera was only up about 22 feet, but it really helped capture the background mountains which otherwise would have been partially hidden. That's resort living!
Moving on...I wanted to share a picture of a clubhouse in Carlsbad. The pole was up about 20 feet, but so was the clubhouse, which meant it was a level shot. I could not have taken this picture without a pole camera.
Finally, I wanted to end up with a small pool in a small manufactured home community. But the pool's setting was great - among a bunch of trees. The pole really helped to capture this picture.
Anyway, I hoped you've enjoyed these as much as I did in taking them. NOTE: If you start taking these kind of community picture, you have to be extra vigilant in watching the MLS. I cannot tell you how many times other real estate agents decided to appropriate my photos. Upon getting a phone call, they usually removed them promptly, but it is still sort of unbelievable that people would take without asking.
