I'm no expert.. But flip this upside down and backwards, so the ONE LOVE is readable.. Either way, I love this shot though

I definitely should, I didn't even notice the ONE LOVE until I got home and was looking at the photos. Thanks, I love those straight down shots. I always see peeps drone shots in the city like that. Thinking they got on top of the tallest roof they could find and launched from there or set their altitude limit at 600-700 ft.

Gonna try and give editing while using a Graphics Tablet another go. Was gonna get the display but I settled for the standard in the end.

Did you ever find a docking station for your Mavic?
Nope, but to be fair I haven't looked into it much since bringing it up.

I ended up organizing my studio space and using some shelf space I wasn't using for my gear. I had an outlet on the wall where I was putting the stuff we, so I plugged in some surge protectors and just had all my stuff plugged in there.

I've moved to a new crib since then tho, and now my basement is unfinished with shyt everywhere.

:mjlol:

I'm going to stop playing. You're really inspiring me with your shots. What's a good site to upload to post the full pics like you guys do? I've got years of drone shots I don't even use. The Pano is a great shot to get too. Especially the big one that looks like the brady bunch grid

Yea you definitely gotta get some shots posted, appreciate it fam. Honestly I pay for my own websites so I just upload to them and link from them. I need to get some pano shots from the drone and ground camera.

I been using my drone for 90% of my outside photography lately, sent these shots to my fam from my 5D Mark IV. He just assumed it was from the drone hovering low :pachaha:. 17 degrees out and my heated gloves were barely doing anything to help with the chill.

This is one thread where I have never seen that. All about sharing work and learning in here. As far as film camera, haven't one one in forever. My advice would be you hit up YouTube, whole wealth of info on there.

just get on IG and ask people if they want to shoot, or shoot your friends. there's. plenty of vain people who want pictures to post, especially if you giving shyt away for free.
