Making the best of a remote camera set-up

I think the best way to make use of a remote camera set-up is to make some sort of composite image combining 2 of the images captured at the same time from 2 separate angles. This images 1 was captured from a remote camera mounted above the shot clock. The inset image was captured with a camera I was hand-holding and triggering the remote camera via Pocket Wizards.

The one thing to remember most importantly when using remote camera all precautions should be taken to insure to prevent cameras from falling. Please remember to use safety cables on all equipment mounted above playing surfaces or other areas. Not only will this safeguard your equipment. But, if any mountings or supports should fail safety cables will prevent equipment from falling on to spectators or players.
