| The latest news from Above All - Ohio... | ||
|
NEW IR PRICING! -- We
are pleased to announce a new low price for residential infrared scanning
services! For as little as $97, homeowners can get a "quick scan"
of their entire home to find hidden problems. We'll even come back after
you've corrected the deficiencies and re-scan the problem areas at no charge.
Please contact us today for complete details - some limitations do apply! |
Winter Aerial Photos -- Yes, we do fly and
take photos all year long, including the winter months.
Please be advised that we need as much lead time as possible for scheduling your photos. Winter weather means that we have to plan our flights well in advance. The number of days and the amount of daylight available for taking photos is much more limited now than it is in the summer. Also, the sun is lower and the shadows of buildings and objects become longer and more noticeable in aerial photos. This is not necessarily a bad thing - long shadows can have a pleasing dramatic effect in a photo. However, it is something to be aware of should shadows be undesirable. It's actually always in your best interest to give us as much notice as possible, not just during the winter. The more time we have to plan and the more time we have to wait for that perfect weather day, the more chance we have to get you the best possible photos. Give us a call to discuss your aerial, architectural, or infrared photos today, even if you don't think you'll be needing service for several weeks or even months! |
Website Updates -- The
2012 "Stock Photo of the Week" archive page is up and
running! We hope you will enjoy seeing a new aerial, architectural, or infrared photo each week
(approximately...) in 2012! If you have something you'd like to see, by all means,
let us know...
We've made our first entry to the 2012 blog. Check it out and read about some of the challenges of flying in the winter. As we said in our last news update, we updated the slide show at the top of this page with new images. Initially, it contained every photo from our SPOTW archives, but that slowed down the page load too much. We now have the number of slides limited to 30 and we will change the slides each week. The slide show will now include the 5 most recent SPOTW's plus 25 random photos from the rest of the archives. If you haven't already checked it out, but sure to play around with the Cooliris wall - a new way to browse our stock photo of the week archives. Cooliris is plug-in for Firefox, Safari, or Chrome - once you install it, just visit any one of our SPOTW archive pages - 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, or 2012 - and click on the Cooliris "wall" icon in your browser or the icon that appears when you hover over any photo. 2012 photos have now been added to the wall... If you do not have the free plug-in, click on the "Free Download" button on this page and check it out! Firefox users can also add Cooliris through Mozilla's secure site. |

Infrared Service --
Winter months are the perfect time for home energy audits. Winter is also
a good time to do aerial infrared roof surveys (as long as there is not snow
on the roof...). The temperature difference between the outside air and the
inside air really makes the thermal signatures associated with air
infiltration stand out.
Above All - Ohio offers on-site inspections for air and moisture infiltration as well as aerial thermal infrared photography. We have state-of-the-art thermal infrared imaging equipment and software and we have a certified professional thermographer on staff. Contact us today to schedule your infrared inspection! The sooner you identify and correct insulation deficiencies or building problems, the sooner you can start saving money! What can infrared inspections, photos, and/or videos do for you or your company? Check out our infrared thermography pages or give us a call to find out! |

STOCK PHOTO OF THE WEEK |

January 23-29, 2012 "Glass City at Night" Downtown Toledo, Ohio, and the Maumee River shine in this night time aerial photograph. Night time aerials are a very tricky assignment - slow shutter speeds combined with a camera moving in excess of 100 miles per hour make it very difficult to get great images. We use top-of-the-line cameras and lenses as well as gyro stabilization to get the best photos possible for our customers. Give us a call today to discuss your most challenging projects! We can help!

January 16-22, 2012 "Atmospheric Rumble Strips" We're usually pointing the camera at things on the ground while we're in the air, but sometimes it's worth turning the lens towards the sky... We noticed these interesting clouds early last summer while flying over rural eastern Ohio. Clouds like this are too high for our piston-engine powered airplane to reach. That's fine with us, though - patterns like this usually indicate some kind of turbulence in the atmosphere. To view a larger version of this photo, click on it or click this direct link.

January 9-15, 2012 "Airport Parking" The bright yellow fuselages of cargo carrier DHL's planes stood out from a distance, so we decided to go take a closer look. This near vertical panoramic photo shows how airplanes are parked on the ramp (often incorrectly referred to as the "tarmac"). This arrangement allows the planes to use the available real estate more efficiently. To view a larger version of this photo, click on it or click this direct link.
