70 Nov 20 Reply Thanks, Frans! For sure, composition with a drone is a challenge.

Kind regards,

70 Nov 20 Reply A very creative "abstraction"! I will check out Shainblums' works. I am fascinated with the possibilities with the drone but for me it requires a different kind of visualization from on-the-ground photography!

The "blur" you refer to is some sort of visual aberration, but it is not exactly motion blur. You can take a look at the crop in my reply to Pierre and see that the image in that area becomes softer , but upon magnification, without obvious motion artifact.
Thank you for your helpful comments!

70 Nov 20 Reply Kathryn, there are several camera controls, but the challenge to me is that my first priority has been flying the drone. It has happened a couple of times that while messing with the camera, when I looked up, the drone was not in sight! I have a "return to home" function available to me, so it was not a big deal, but was unsettling nonetheless.

The "bush" is another island of grass. Framing the shot consists of changing the angle of tilt, rotating the drone/camera, and raising or lowering the altitude. For me it has taken some getting used to
Thanks for your comments.

70 Nov 20 Reply Hi Pierre. Thanks for your interest and comments. A crop of the top of the image is attached here - please take a look at it and see what you think. It appears to be less sharp, but does not seem to be motion related. Is it lens softness in that area? Nov 16th
70 Nov 20 Comment Amazing transformation from the original into a world of color! The reflections on the water are a particularly absorbing portion of the image and a visual treat. Nov 16th
70 Nov 20 Comment Well thought out and executed image captures the detail and freshness of this seaport. Image appears to be a bit stronger and centered - to my eye - if cropped just inside the post on the right side. Nov 16th
70 Nov 20 Comment Wonderful detail in the textures throughout the scene. Light makes perfect your ridge line. Composition brings the entire image into play here. Spectacular image! Nov 16th
70 Nov 20 Comment Image is chock full of motion both in sea and sky. The viewer is affixed to and riding upon the ice mass at 100 miles per hour as the sea rushes by on either side, bound for far away and indeterminate destination. Nov 16th
70 Nov 20 Comment Absorbing progression of mountain clusters out beyond the vee of the tree notch taking the eye all the way to infinity. All well balanced in tone and delightful colors. Nov 16th
70 Nov 20 Comment Enchanting light and colors in the line of trees, and under a lively sky! The spacious foreground is one running deer away from a completing this exemplary landscape. Nov 16th
