25% Off Select Three Legged Thing Compact System Tripods and AirHeds

Posted on by Nick Roberts

With Christmas looming Three Legged Thing started to receive hundreds of emails about potential stocking fillers. So, after a little discussion there in the Chicken Shed, they’ve decided to slash the prices of their Compact System Tripods, Keith and Tim, and two of their AirHeds – the AH0 and AH2. WHILE STOCKS LAST!

What is a Travel Tripod?

A travel tripod is designed to be portable, lightweight, compact and as strong as it possibly can be, taking into consideration the constraints of the nature of their design. Three Legged Thing travel tripod systems all have counterfolding legs, that fold back on themselves through a 180 degree arc, to minimize the folded length. They have been measured against airline regulations for hand luggage, and conform to the dimensions of these to enable them for air travel.

The surveyors on Walsh Construction’s Ohio River Bridges Project are a critical part of the bridge building process. Without them the whole project would grind to a halt. By continually measuring and checking the installation of the foundation components these folks assure that everything goes into place exactly as called for in the plans.

This image is a three exposure bracket set that was merged and tone mapped in NIK HDR Efex Pro 2 before being returned to Aperture 3 for final adjustment. By using HDR techniques I was able to handle the wide dynamic range that was present due to the strong backlighting of the sun in the clouds behind the surveyor.
