I want to rotate my MA around this twin tower   , can i use point of interest mode  or its better to use my manual skills  to capture aerial view?
I need your suggestions please

I would do 3 versions of this.

1. Quick shot
     draw the green box around the tower
     pick distance & altitude
     hit go! Monitor for collisions.

2. Active Track (free mode)
     draw the green box around the tower
     Manually fly around the building
     Monitor for collisions.

3. Point of Interest
    Get to a good altitude (google buildings stat and add 100').
    engage point of interest
    Fix the parameters
    Start the flight & monitor for hazards.

It's good to note that these may take two batteries to pull off. Don't forget to hit record. From those three takes you should have something useable. If not, fly it manually. That should give you 4 options. If you still have nothing. Stand on the edge of the water and punt the drone in the river.

Regardless of the method you use, you should smooth your gimbal to avoid the jerky movements.
In you dji go app, go to settings, select the gimbal/camera icon, select Advanced Settings. Over there reduce the gimbal speed to 10 or less and tinker with the Gimbal pitch smoothness to your liking.

Be careful people report MA POI will fly toward the centre. Watch carefully and take the control back if see any problem. Keep a safe distance with the object and things around. Remember the drone is flying sideway during cycling and there is no sensor to avoid it to hit anything on the way.

Most important thing is check are you allow to fly on there before you do so. Don’t get any trouble.

Your highlighted zone can contain both towers. Just draw the box around them both. Point of interest will definitely work. But you should have multiple shots on the drive.

Your gimbal speed be at 20 or below, with a 30+ smoothness setting. And always lightly turn the gimbal pitch wheel when recording. I will try to post a video of a full flight plan of how I shoot architecture. Don't hold me to it though.

Taking multiple takes of your circular-motion shots, so that you have more than one to choose from on your hard drive which you mavic air record to.

-or-

You would want different shots to choose from on your hard disk when you edit your final video.

Manual, however you're more than likely to lose signal when you go behind the first tower.

Personally I'd use Litchi and setup and orbit around them

By doing color grading in post production. Google how to.
There are several programs for it, best is Adobe Premiere Pro, which costs much.
