85 Apr 21 Comment I like the shot, and am sorry I don't have access to the Pacific Coast.
However, the foreground is busy and takes away from the interest. Play with cropping and see what you think.

85 Apr 21 Comment Good shot. Like the abstract. Question: can the controls be adjusted on the camera? Would a higher ISO and smaller aperture have a bad effect for this kind of work? Apr 5th
85 Apr 21 Comment Love it. Spooky, mysterious, and beautiful. Good scene for a movie. Nice job. Apr 5th
85 Apr 21 Reply The camera on the Phantom 4 Pro is adjustable. Apertures, shutter speeds and modes can be tweaked by the user. I find making camera adjustments in flight are difficult for me. So, I usually go with Aperture Priority and F 8 as much as I can.

Side note: The three blank spots in the picture along the line of headstones with the monument are for 3 Civil War Vets who never got headstones. The local historical society is trying to procure VA headstones for these guys. The snag in the works, which has stalled the project, is the concrete block temporary marker placed by the cemetery for each man over 100 years ago. The VA considers these as headstones because they have the name of the Vet. The VA claims the graves are already marked and don't need Govt. headstones. So, if you ever find yourselves in the position to order a VA headstone for a deceased Veteran, make sure the grave is not marked ( commit theft, vandalism, or whatever is necessary) and state so on the application form.

I have the same problem as the Historical Society. I have a headstone order for a Civil War Vet in the same Cemetery that hit the same snag. In my case the Cemetery staff have had to write letters explaining the little, temporary marker, and sign in blood that the marker is to be removed. The matter is still not reconciled.
