These are pictures I took by hanging cameras from kites, a hobby I've played with on and off over the years.  
To get the camera to take pictures, I built a 555 timer circuit that, every 13 seconds, throws a relay wired to the camera's shutter button.  I used a small delta kite (larger ones on the way) and a cheap $30 digital camera with a large SD card.
