I would rather have this view from SRF to stay throughout the year. I think putting the camera on the photo building would restrict the view to a smaller area. Right now there is a boat sitting on the island side of the last hill and things like that would not be visible with the camera closer to the ground.

^^^Yes but with the view we have now we can see the splash down as well as the entrance and exit lines. We can see PWE, Millennium, TTD, the Island Pond, Mantis as well as both hills. On the small one floor photo building all we will probably see is one splash down and maybe the large lift hill. I personally would like to see this webcam stay where it is.

While the wide angle is nice to get an overview of the construction process, I'd prefer to have the closer, clearer view we'd likely get from the photo building. What we can now see of the island isn't very exciting at all - lift hills #1 and #2 and half of the second splashdown. With the change in location, we'd be able to see most of the mainland portion of the ride - the second drop, the entire second splashdown, most or all of the mainland flume, inside the station, the railroad tracks, inside the tunnel, and we might even be able to see some of the island flume from that angle.

Why does the blurry view in the middle remind me of the maXair construction camera when it had that huge bubble on it that got smaller during the day but never fully went away?
It's a spiderweb. Unfortunately, I can't get up there to clean it while they're painting.

Lol, I have a picture on my iPod Touch from last year's season - it's of a huge spider on the Pagoda Cam. I was in our hotel the first night and seen it.
I'll show you guys asap, but first I have to find my iPod, and upload it to tinypic.
