Beautiful capture(s)
It does remind me of Sweden
I will try to find footage (ground until now) from the place.

Also it looks like you are flying lower than 'normal'?
Not sure if I remember right though.

How do you take the sky frames? You are not standing below the drone right?

I have not edited the footage from this year, but this video was taken in the same area it reminds me of.

Could not resist but look for a 'better' view to show what I mean.


Shot is taken in Brålanda (Sweden). Just as where the video was taken.
I also have some video footage from there, but that will have to wait.

Thank you  

Well spotted - I was further down the hill (I can just see myself!) but my height limit was set to 100m so when I got nearer the top, my height above ground was lower than usual. The sky frames were taken from near the foot of the hill before the flight. There was not much wind so the sky did not change too much in the intervening time- thankfully!

You're welcome.
I will try and find you

Have to try that sky think myself once.

Interesting - the trains there appear to carry much more in the way of industrial goods. The ones I see round here are mainly passenger ones. In years gone by, there was much more variation but it's probably a sign of a decline in industry!

Indeed, Sweden has a super rich rail history.
Most of it is gone now btw.
But what remains is still much more than in a lot of other countries.
I guess the size of the country suits rail transportation well.
Plus most of the goods are also good for rail transportation (a lot of wood related products)

Those are big grain silos! I miss the industrial structures we once had in our towns.

Yeah, they are.
There are quite a few in South Sweden.
Most are run by Lantmännen if I remember correctly.
And some have rail connections too

Just after that train at 7:13 or so you see 2 lovely diesel shunters at one of these silo's (I don't remember the place, but I will look it up)

PS, the rail seems to be 'dead' now (at least in 2011)

That's a shame the rail is closed now. So many railways are have been lost in the UK. Wonder if they'd come back into their own in an oil-depleted future!

Yeah, that is a shame indeed.
Probably cost efficiency....
