    2 Pro Rannoch Moor/Glencoe, Scotland at Dawn

    Some beautiful photos there! Good light like that makes the early starts well worthwhile - especially somewhere as spectacular as there! Well frames and executed too! ?

    Fame at last! Footage used on Channel 4

    Definitely YouTube! I now know maybe almost 5% of the free version of DaVinci Resolve! That’s a lot more than when I first opened it and scratched my head.

    Fame at last! Footage used on Channel 4

    Thank you! Editing is a big learning curve for me and I’m still struggling to get to grips with it.

    Thanks and I’m glad you liked it! That last orbit of the trawler was flown with my thumbs. I find Activetrack seems to increase in distance from the subject the longer it goes on for. I was a bit nervous so low to the water!

    Thank you! All made much easier by having a supportive wife who was happy to kick me out of the holiday flat for an hour each morning whilst she did her workout!

    Fame at last! Footage used on Channel 4

    Fame at last!! Channel 4 has used quite a few of my drone clips I shot at Whitby when I was on holiday there last August in a program called ‘Trip Hazard’. The series features uk holiday destinations as travelled to by disabled comedian Rosie Jones. They used quite a few clips - I’m dead...
