Description

Here's a 360 degree panorama from this evening's flight with the Inspire. This was stitched together in Lightroom CC from 8 photos. With the Inspire hovering at 221 feet, (the metadata - which we apparently don't get anymore - indicated 221 feet) I would yaw her a few degrees, shoot a photo, then repeat until the camera was facing the direction where it started. The gimbal on this quad is so stable, it's like a tripod in the sky. Anyway - I just thought I'd put this up so you could see the whole scene. You can see me standing next to the minivan in the lower left corner. We don't need no stinking selfie-sticks! LOL Thanks for looking!

fun view !! Something I noticed while flying with a friend several years ago... is how most of the colors are "dampened" by shooting from above.... maybe it was the time of day, or what he was doing made my eyes squint... but I

expect there is a technical explanation that I don't comprehend, e.g. light refraction, limited human eye sight, air pollution, etc.

360 degrees worth of pano! Way to go.

I've only done one of those and it was from the top of the tower at the Liberty Memorial. You have a big advantage...turning with remote control and pivoting about a single point...I had to walk around the ring walk which is anything but a single point. Where is this scene?

ok, so you're standing somewhere...well I don't understand any of the logistics, so I'll stop postulating before I look like a total idiot...but this is a panorama, sir, and the light is enveloping, as is the circuitous layout of all that land, trees and roads. The roads really do move in curving ways, suggesting that they follow the landscape rather than a "grid". (We get grids in this part of the midwest. Lonnnnnnnng flat grids...) Sweet light, and a big-feeling shot. That's one huge landscape you have around you. Lovely work.

(ps, when I take a break later this month, I'll start looking at your comic-novel...and I'll leave some comments in your gallery.) (I'll hire a research team to help me brave the wilds of the new RR search function...) (those italics are irony....)
