Many of the tourist beaches in Costa Rica had a perimeter. If you get close to the edge, there would be about a billion signs saying that you should not continue unless you want to meet crocodiles. Fair enough – but where I can’t go, my drone can!
Standing in front of a glacier is already impressive. Flying over one with a drone is even more interesting – just look at these patterns! You might think these are just small cracks in the ice – but every single one of those ravines is large enough to swallow people, cars, and even falling drones.
Images like this make me think – Back before they built these bridges, getting around was a super pain! For every little trip, you had to take some sort of boat, navigate the currents, and ideally not crash into random rocks … Amazing how over the last many years we managed to remove many of these obstacles.
I am not a great drone pilot – at all. I fly slow, always scared a bird is gonna crash into my drone. As a result, I do at times forget to check the actual camera settings – and as a result of that result, I sometimes get completely underexposed images. This photo here is one of those – it was completely underexposed. I managed to recover some details, but any zoom might reveal some strange colored pixels. Still – works for screens, so I take it!
Here is just a quick shot from icy Iceland! It was already super dark and we flew around with our drones – which is actually a bit scary as you never know when you fly into another drone! Anyway, it was quite too dark for my little drone so I had to reduce the noise in the photo a lot, but the picture doesn’t need a lot of details which makes it still work. There was also a seal swimming around all the time, but of course, it didn’t show up when you needed it to complete your photo…
