Looks like we missed the exhibition in Dundee but there's lots more on his blog:
Kieran Baxter writes: I am studying an MSc in Animation & Visualisation at DJCAD, University of Dundee, Scotland.
My projects have been designed to expand upon a central question of what low altitude aerial photography can bring the representation and visualization of heritage. The suitability of low aerial photographs for the purposes of structure from motion photogrammetry has been key to my investigations and 3D meshes generated in this way are the foundation of my visualization work.
This snowy looking mesh of Jarlshof consists of 1.6 million vertices and was pieced together from thousands of photographs taken from an 8m pole, in order to reach every niche and corner of the monument site. This is compared with a kite aerial photograph taken at a later date with special permission from the nearby air traffic control tower at Sumburgh airport.

Thanks for these Cerrig, they are very good aren't they?
There are a couple which show the link between the monuments in Orkney very well. One shows the Stenness circle with the Barnhouse settlement to top left and Maeshowe surely must be in shot. Another of the Ring of Brodgar shows the area of the ongoing Ness excavations right down to the Stenness circle. I'll put a link on the Ness sitepage.
