QUOTE (Stu) How high is this feature, anyone? back of the envelope, right triangle problem... ~50 pixels long shadow at 2 meters per pixel resolution == 100Meters shadow...low sun angle (?) degrees (shadow may be running on a downhill slope, making it longer...) my guess is 4-8 meters tall (WAG) -------------------- CLA CLL
