that you do not fly aerial photography outside a very limited window of January

driving through <st1:place w:st="on">South Georgia</st1:place> this week

that by and large the hardwoods, those that are near structures, are either far
enough away not to interfere or are below the roof lines. That would seem to
negate the tree cover issue. Given that logic, are we, at least in <st1:place
