Looks like you are having fun Pali! A friend of mine has an older drone and we went out flying a few times. We was wary of me flying it because I'd zip around pretty fast and furiously. Of course it wasn't mine so.... But a life of video gaming has taught me great eye/hand coordination so I was able to fly it pretty well!

A few more Widelux shots from this weekend...hope you guys don't mind! Shot on Kodak XX dev'd in HC-110 dil. H:

This is cool Pali! You know, I predict a new genre of photo subjects coming. It’s easy to get straight down shots from a drone. What about working at making such a shot less ‘busy’ and developing compositional rules just for this type of photo? Take them out of the realm of pure documentation and into .... (gasp) art.

The work of Bill Garnett comes to mind. Perhaps you are already familiar with his photographs. One of the best, over many years.

Thank you Bryan! I am loving your work with the Widelux!

Thanks Pali! Of course I love the 2:5 aspect ratio of the Widelux, matching the K6x15 and my 8x20...

Nice start with the drone photo! My last experience with an RC airplane was when a gust of wind took it out of range and it promptly crashed into the ocean. I think drones have improved enough that I could use one comfortably now. I'm saving towards a midrange dji. I can forsee it being like 8x10 with low cost barrier to entry and much expensive options and accessories... Video editing software, extra batteries and parts, nicer display for controlling it, etc..
