Beautiful shot! Chris

Thanks for your comments Dale. When I get some time, I might reduce the shadows in the trees by a touch but it won’t be much because the sun was setting and it was getting hard to see details in the trees even with my own eyes. Chris

Dale, thank you for taking the time to work on my image. I do appreciate it and I am amazed at what can be done in Photoshop to highlight different aspects of an image. Both you and Filmarik worked on my image and made similar edits which I do value and ultimately learn from. My goal when I...

Sure, if you want to give it a go I don’t mind. I can share the original DNG which is very underexposed as it was part of a 5 shot AEB set. Another forum member did some edits as well on the original. I tend to edit my images to try to reflect what the original scene looked like when I shot...

Thanks Dale. Chris

Thanks for the tips. I do appreciate them. I might try a bit more editing in photoshop. I’m not a photoshop expert and I tend to like to preserve the natural look of the original scene rather than making it into something it wasn’t but if you want to have a go at the image I can share the...

Thanks. I experimented with a number of aperatures all the way down to f11 and using HDR shots (to increase dynamic range). Ultimately the best shot of the evening was the second one of a 5 shot AEB set. I was trying to get a sharp sunstar, while reducing lens flare and get a good composition...

Thanks. Chris

Here's a sunset taken with my Mavic 3 Pro a couple of nights ago over a frozen creek. The temperature during shooting was between -8ºC to -11ºC. Thankfully I had my transmitter mitt to keep my hands from getting too cold. Chris 24mm, 1/320s @ f/8

Nice sunset pano! So that was shot with the 168mm tele lens. Can the Mavic 4 Pro use free pano on the tele and shoot AEB images or did you do it manually? Chris

Welcome from Ontario, Canada. Chris

My average flight time is just over 18 minutes. In warm weather I will land between 20 to 30% battery remaining. I rarely go lower than 20%. In winter I will land between 30 to 40% battery but usually closer to 40%. Right now our daytime temperatures are below -10ºC and will be staying like that...

That’s a beautiful shot! I love VR panos. I especially like how you were able to capture the sunstar just over the mountains. Well done! Chris

Great shots! I especially like the Spinnaker’s and the Two tankers. Thanks for sharing. Chris

If you are planning on bringing a drone to Canada, the best drone to bring would be a sub 250 gram drone like the Mini 4 Pro or earlier. The Mini 5 Pro is not considered a sub 250 gram drone in Canada. For visitors to Canada the rules/requirements to fly a drone that is above 250g are...
