I drive past this mansion every day, twice a day and decided to attempt to shoot it at night. I had to wait for a couple months for favourable conditions (it's super windy here) as well as get permission to shoot on the property. This particular shoot was a challenge not only because of the limited visibility but also because I couldn't get a GPS lock on the drone due to the scale of the building and the close proximity of the trees. It took multiple attempts to get the footage I wanted as the drone tended to "float" about on the air currents. I am however, very happy with the end result. Sorry, it's a bit repetitive due to the length of the music.

Welcome to the forum, and thanks for sharing some great nighttime footage. I’m charging up my batteries and strobes now, because you’ve got me wanting to fly tonight!
Welcome to the forum. We look forward to your participation and your view of the world.
Welcome! What settings were you using? Auto exposure?
Hello from the Hoosier Heartland Crash Pro.
Nice little production.
Now you need to fly through the front door and give us a tour. ?

That opening shot put the wind up my sails, below tree top level in the dark, you have some guts!
Very nice video.
For what it is worth, when flying from the front of my house I normally have to get the drone up to around 3 to 5m to get GPS lock. Trees and the house obscure the sky at the normal launch point and where I could get a better view of the sky the ground is not suitable for launching.

Sorry! The only real knowledge I have regarding drones is how to crash them!
Just using auto exposure. The camera is smarter than I am!
I enjoy doing the more challenging stuff. Having said that, I've managed to kill 2 drones in the first 6 months of ownership. I'm not a great pilot, but I'll do just about anything to get the shot I want.
