Thank you. The mist rolls in over the cliffs every night. I wish I had hyper lapse skills to show it properly.

Ha! I always make sure I'm well back from the edge. I'll let the Mavic take that risk for me! DJI doesn't do care refresh for pilots.

Thank you. It's a new place I found to fly quite recently. Good for long exposure shots too as it has a motorway running through the fields, so I can be plenty far away but still get the light trails.

Thank you! The sea looks great in the right light, I still wouldn't swim in it though, way too cold.

Stunning!  Can you share what settings you use?  Using any ND filters?  I’m new to the Mavic and am trying to learn more about photography, I’ve focused on videos. I’ve been told by a pro photographer friend to always shoot in raw. Thoughts?

Thanks, using the AEB mode and merging the photos gives a much more even exposure and allows you to make the most of the limited dynamic range of the Mavic's little sensor.

Thank you.

These were shot on manual mode, 100 iso, using 5 shot AEB mode to give me the over and underexposure so that the foreground isn't just blacked out against the sunset.

Merge the 5 photo stacks in Lightroom to HDR and then merge those into a panorama. Set highlights to -100, shadows to +100 and that should bring you to a good exposure.

After that, just fiddle with colour vibrancy and saturation until it suits the scene.

Always shoot in 4:3 and RAW it gives you the most information to work with and crop afterwards. It will give you bigger files which means less on your memory card but it gives you a lot more to work with and get around some of the limitations of the camera.

This video was my starting point for learning how to get the most out of this technique:

This guy is another level to me though. I don't tend to do as much in post processing with different radial filters and such.
