So I used ND 1000 from polarpro, 1.3 second exposure, was a little windy, had to fly very low and close to the water and although as you can see it was moving fast aircraft held up really well, slight editing in LR.

Really cool shots.
I think I have to buy one of those filters.

Spot on Hallmark. Very well done. Once more thanks for sharing

Thank you, they are good fun.

Fantastic shots, thank you very much! Stunning that everything else including the bird is still so sharp.

That bird known as a Crane is fishing , so he will keep extremely still until he is ready to pounce, he has an amazing wing span which I witnessed when I flew in with my drone, but after a few seconds he took no notice. Thank you.

I am not a bird specialist, but to me it rather looks like a heron. I know them well because they loved to visit our garden as long as we had some fish (inherited from the previous house owners) in our little pond. When there was only one fish left then, we gave it to our neighbor who protects his pond with a net and has plenty of fish in there. But no matter if it is a crane or a heron, you have captured it excellently in most beautiful scenery, thank you again!

Yes you can do long exposures on both MP and Spark, you will need long exposure ND Filters, many different brands out there, look for minimum ND 256 up to ND 1000, best then to go look at the many YT videos regarding long exposures.
Thank you for your kind comments.

Those shots are really Great Hallmark

Very nice shots. That is indeed a Grey Heron. We have them in abundance in South Africa.
Comps and slow flow looks very nice. Some whites blown out though. Maybe do a slightly shorter exposure? I would prefer to have the flow less milky, but well exposed, if it were mine.
Well done.

Amazing what these drones can do. Well done

Thank you, Trying to get it spot on not easy, the blown bits usually come when sun pops through the clouds, better results can be obtained by shooting on overcast days or using a smaller density filter, I have a ND 2000 filter for Mavic Air but exposure takes a very long time so you then have a problem can the craft stay steady enough for long enough, I will get a 250 and see if this helps.
