It's cold outside but another even colder front is on its way. Check the cloud in the video.  Just enough time for a flight over the frosty trees.

Nice capture of a COLD looking place.

Thanks.  This was still a warm day like around 0°C (32°F).  This weekend we're in the freezer with overnight lows sinking to -31°C (-24°F).  There will be no flying then.

I have a couple of small racing quads to fly when the snow melts in a few months.  I'll try some aerobatics with them.

Aloha Hummingbird,

     Nice video!  Some of the scenes look like very nice detailed pencil sketches.  You could pull a shot and get it printed and framed.  People would think you are really good representationalist.

     Looking forward to more!

Aloha and Drone On!

I'll give it a try.  Sadly I didn't take any photos on this flight.  They would print better.

Aloha Hummingbird,

     Actually, the prints are on canvas or a similar material.  But the material has the uneven surface of canvas.  If the printer has a finer and slightly smoother canvas or other material, then photos might make a difference.  I have seen prints on flat and smooth material, but then it looks like a photo.  The canvas surface gives the viewer pause and makes them wonder.

     A lot of photographers are doing it now and the commonness of it reduces the novelty.  But, your video captures a unique sort of imagery that challenges the viewer.  Pulling a frame from a 4K video and printing it 24 by 18 inches (minimum) will keep a viewer there for five or ten minutes and they will turn away with a smile on their face.

Aloha and Drone On!

Yes, two or three more long cold months and it will all melt, bringing back the high flying Sun...


But it’s a great time of year, to reflect... on the ice. ;-)

Winter ?   Winter ?  Oh yeah,  I read about it once !

So,  our summer cuts out at the end of Feb - it's been mild this year,  but autumn can sometimes sting a bit !

Will the cold weather affect the recording? Mating it lag or blurry image? Thanks ahead

I have not seen any problem using a DJI camera in the cold.  No blur or lag.  Did have a cheap FPV camera that would go out of focus in the cold.  In the cold you must make sure the battery is warm at the start of the flight.
