This was after 15 straight days of below freezing temperatures. The sound of the ice/slush-bergs almost sounded like waves breaking on a sandy beach. Keep thinking warm thoughts.

Thanks. I don't usually do much color grading but decided to get my feet wet for this one with Davinci Resolve.

Thank you. It was about 18F with 15-25 knot wind.

That was my favorite shot as well. Most of the rest of the video was just an excuse to share that one shot .

Nice video..how's your device holding up in the cold ? I believe the operating temperature is 32°.

It has held up very well. I pre-heat the batteries using the car's defroster and sit in the seat of the car with my iPad catching hot air from the heater for as much of the flight as I can. I occasionally get a cold battery warning when I first start up but it heats to above 25C in a hover pretty quickly. I havn;t had my iPad shut down yet but because of the cold but have read enough warnings from other pilots that I keep an eye on it.

Raised in Chicago, now living in California.  Your video reminded me of why I say that "Chicago is a nice place to be FROM".
