And the the total cost of the parts was about 150, which isn’t bad considering what its holding up. Im sure it could be done cheaper, but really when your hanging 1500 bucks worth of camera off the end, going cheap really wasn’t an option. ---

It’s not too hard to PS that stuff out depending on the angle. Since the camera is pointing straight back towards the direction of the pole, there isn’t toooo much to get rid of in the pic. But it also depends on how complicated the background is as well. A little clone stamp action, blur, and bam, no more pole. I can see in Ian’s first two pics where the pole was.
