It was a scramble to get the drone aloft this morning in time for a few shots of an amazing dawn. I wish I'd been ten minutes sooner out of bed. Both the Mini3Pro and I were still half asleep.

And a brief timelapse

Still a lovely capture,   just needs a little denoising.

Just five minutes with a frame every 2 seconds. yet in real time they didn't seem to have moved.

I think I've done that right (via a PM)

Yep you did it right,  There was a surprising amount of detail in the DNG file.
You have a PM.

Amazing hyperlapse.  Really cool how you captured the clouds moving from right to left.

You could post it. for everyone to see .

Thanks RDB. DAFlys has edited and improved the DNG image for me - I'll add it lower down this thread.

Thanks. It's curious,  watching in real time the clouds didn't appear to move much at all.

Ah nice

The originals already looks very nice, and the retouched versions are even more amazing! Well done, both of you :-)

If only I had got up 15 minutes sooner, it was even better.

It’s amazing how much detail was under the black bottom section.

I’ll have a look at darktable again and see if you can do the same with it.  

Here's a version from Darktable,   increased the saturation globally and then added an exposure eclipse mask over the land and changed the exposure percentile.    I must confess Im not good with Dartable as I dont really use it.

Blériot53 Posted at 9-30 04:52

You're very welcome Mr. B.    I'll definitely scroll down the thread and check it out.

Nice touches.  I wish I had @DAFlys mad editing skills.  

Blériot53 Posted at 9-30 04:53

Maybe not so much in real time but in the timelapse movement was quite obvious.  Or, maybe I'm just suffering from a bit of sleep deprivation.  

Good to see you are setting a fine example as an early riser. I'll adopt the opposite.

It’s just practice DT.   This is just some select exposure and saturation.

Well you have had a busy few days by all accounts
