I am an aviation and photography enthusiast who is passionate about bringing both of those interests together by capturing places that I find beautiful. My mission is to add value to everyone I encounter by getting a little better every day. I have an FAR Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate and I am open to business opportunities.
Where were you positioned when you shot this? Down at ground level or on top of another building? A lot of people don’t realize that flying downtown is legal as long as you’re careful about not crossing into protected airspace. There are a couple of small areas that are off limits.
It does take a lot of planning to keep visual line of sight and prevent signal loss. I was on the top of the Peachtree Center parking deck. Even then I have to move around a bit depending on which direction I am flying.
Very nice video and beautiful landscape! Nice drone footage 👍 Done myself few drone videos for my travel channel if you want to have a look at....thank you!! You got a subscriber!!
I do use cine mode in some situations, but most of the time I am flying in normal mode. The additional speed in these large landscapes helps give me more visual movement. It's been a process of experimentation over time. The more you fly, the more you will learn. Of course, RU-vid videos help too.
Thanks! I do use ND filters. At first light and at sunrise, I usually don't have any filters on. As the sun comes up, I'm gradually adding them depending on how bright it is.
It's become my go to place, but I am also expanding my horizons into other locations. I was in the Tennessee mountains last week and captured some great stuff. Thank you for the positive comment! Keep watching for more.
Thank you! That's one of the best reasons to get up so early. In addition to it being so calm and quiet. And the colors seem to be a little different each time.
@@DarrinBarth next time you’re in L’ville you’ll have to check out (if you haven’t already?) the Highlands/CherokeePark and Old Louisville/StJamesCt areas! Both gorgeous historic areas of the city! 🌈🏰💎📸🏞️🌄⛩️🏛️⛲️🛶🌈
Hey there. I talked to you recently under a different name. Another great video! I went to brasstown bald today. Making my way to mount Mitchell. I fly FPV quads but this makes me want to get a DJI drone. too.
Thanks! DJI does make really good products and they are much easier to fly than FPV quads - that's takes some serious skill. My flights are usually meant to be more scenic, so I really like my Air2s. I will probably move up to the Mavic 3 Pro someday...
Thanks! There is a designated Wilderness Area outside of the area surrounding the summit that is prohibited for flight. It doesn't show up on all of the apps, but Autopylot is one that shows Wilderness Areas. I flew from the back of the parking lot and kept my distance from the observation tower (vertical and horizontal). I flew only for a short time because it was very cold and windy, but had no issues because I was respectful of people and property.
