While flying over a forest nearby Tiveden (Sweden) I suddenly noticed two white dots on my screen.
I quickly realized it were 2 kayaks on their route to lake Unden.
They must have had a hard time since the water was so low the 'river' was not flowing continuously between the different lakes.
I hovered for a while and took some footage while imagining what they must have been thinking to hear this noise and see a small drone flying above them.



They did wave their paddles and I 'waved' back moving left and right before leaving for my next location.

Stunning shot Monty - well done!

Beautiful image, it looks very peaceful down there.

Thank you.
It was, until my MP took off

You're welcome mate

I have not been very active on the 'Inspire' forum lately.
Did you already post some pictures there with your big bird?

Cool, nice pic. Thanks for sharing.

I usually don't mind having the bird up, but in this place it was so quiet......

No, I just post them on the Mavic side here. All stills of course

Ah ok.
That does explain why I did not see them 'over there'

Wow amazing shot!

Yeah - I think that side is more focused these days on the Inspire 2

Plus there are far less active users 'over there'

It does seem to be more of a place to air tech issues rather than share content but some of the footage I've seen (especially from the X7) is mind blowing.

Majestic picture. Thanks for sharing

Lovely photo Monty gives a sense of peace and serenity.

Yes, I think  these are 'pro's' that don't have time to share their work.
They just make it and sell it.

I don't blame them - some of them earn serious cash too!

Yes I can imagine.
And by keeping it exclusive they will keep it that way.

I imagine smaller business pilots would face major copyright issues for sure and their clients privacy needs to be considered too I guess.

Great shot Monty

Great shot Montfrooij which prooves again that although nature can be very beautiful, having subjects most of the time makes much of a difference in our shootings.
