did you take the 2nd pic
Were you in a boat Nah - I was going to edit the picture to make it look like that. The dock wall on the left is a walkable gradient so I just walked down it. I am in the process of making a long pole for my camera to be able to lower or raise it over/down walls etc, so might do some more pix in a couple of weeks.
There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music.

long pole
try one of those window washing poles that you reach upstairs windows with
They come in 2ft/2ft 6ins pieces that you just into each other to get the length you want
I presume you take the photos with the timer on

I've got one of those brush poles Derek, they are very good, but I don't know if I would trust my camera on one hanging upside down.
I've got an old tripod which is useless because its not very stable, I am hoping to adapt the 3 legs into one long telescopic leg. If not then the wash pole is a pretty cheap solution.
And yes, put the camera on a timer delay, or tape the button down and put it on continuous shot mode.

Can you not put a remote shutter release on the camera? What sort of camera is it?

I have even thrown a camera up in the air in continuous shot mode to see over a wall, that was in the middle of some bad weather and just happened to be at the place when there was no rain.
