Hello videography friends,

in this video, I tried to catch the Milky Way with actions cams at a beautiful location on a Swiss mountain. In the project I also took footage of the breathtaking surrounding landscape with my Mavic Air 2. The scenes on Octobre 18, I took with D-cinelike color profile and I in post I just graded the contrast and saturation slightly, I didn't change the color, because I liked it very much straight of the drone. The scenes on Octobre 20 (sunrise), I filmed in the HDR mode. Again in post I changed it only slightly, because it was already very good. I just shifted slightly toward orange, because the shadows are a bit blue. I was so happy, when I watched the footage the first time.

So thank you very much to DJI for this awesome product! I'm only a hobby videographer, but with the Mavic Air 2 I can shoot like a pro! You can't imagine, how much joy I have with the Air2 (I say this without beeing sponsored by DJI at all, I paid every single dollar of my Air2 by myself and I don't regret only single dollar!).

Merry Christmas and a happy Hew Year to everyone!

In this video about my other hobby "gold prospecting" I was also flying my Mavic Air 2 over a beautiful snowy valley in Switzerland. Some of you may know the valley from my earlier "Wilde Rabiusa" video. I was just blown away by the footage. Again, I had not much time and only thanks to the excellent Mavic Air 2, most of the footage was just incredible.

At 07:39 is s short sequence, I took a year ago with my former drone, a DJI Spark and after this sequence, you see more Mavic Air 2 footage. Despite the Spark is only HD, I'm also impressed about it's footage.

Awe inspiring footage.  Season's greetings Schwendi.

Thank you. Yes, I love that place... I go there pretty often.

Without a doubt that would be my favorite spot to not only prospect but to relax and shoot video.  

Thank you, Schwendi for a mesmerizing and awe-inspiring video. Continue to have Faith that things will improve, enjoy the MA2 and continue to make those awesome videos. Stay safe my friend and have Happy New Year!

Thank you. That day I was focused more on filming the video, but we had a very good gold prospecting year, in fact one of our best, despite a poor start. So yes, we caught a lot of candy . I would love it to make a video about our gold but this has some downsides, so we are cautious. There are grudgers and after I found my first larger nugget, some spied on me, to know my spot etc. But I think very often about showing our latest gold in a video.... And then my buddies say: "don't do it"  Therefore we show only gold, which was found years ago...

I get it.
Honesty is not something that all people have.
I really like watching gold digging videos.
And even thought about doing that myself.
But it is not something I can 'just do' from where I live.
So it is just a thought

Yeah, gold prospecting is really fascinating. Don't hesitate to ask, if you have questions about gold prospecting! I would love it to help...

Thanks for that. Good to know!
It does not fit my life very well.
Living in The Netherlands, full time job, family etc. etc.
So I will stick to watching videos about it for now

I liked your video!
