ship

On July 28th the historic ferry Tourist II partially sank in Astoria, Oregon. This ferry used to provide transportation between Astoria, OR, and Megler, Washington prior to the construction of the Astoria Bridge. Sadly, this historic vessel now rests in the briny harbor where it once proudly...

Valiant Lady is a cruise ship under construction at Fincantieri's shipyard in Sestri Ponente for Virgin Voyages. Scheduled to debut in March 2022 as Virgin's second ship,she will become the sister ship to Scarlet Lady and also operate exclusively as an "adults-only" ship. Construction and career...

Minimal editing , zero colour grading/correction just plain HDR recording .. and nighttime flight with all the wrong video settings lol

I hope everyone is doing well, despite what we are all going through. I had to get out of the house today and get some video of a ship that was moored in the usual spot I video 99% of my ship videos. It was fun, I went through 3 batteries, and enjoyed getting out of the house. Not only did I...

This is the 591' long "Patagonia", a bulk carrier ship from Singapore. She was moored in Gibsonton, right off Tampa Bay this morning, so I had to pay her a visit before she set sail. Shot in 4k, at 30fps on my M2P.

Well, the "Horizon" set sail sometime last night, and today I looked on my Marine Tracker app, and it showed this new ship, the Bulk Carrier "Nordtajo" in it's place, with a home port of Valletta (the Capital of Malta). Soooooo...with three batteries full of power, a killer DJI Mavic 2 Pro...

So this 586' ship moored itself near my home the other day, so since it was gorgeous out, I wanted to get down there and get some drone footage of her before she departed. She was actually being filled (you'll see it in the video) with some type of mineral. Not sure what it was... But it was...

These are some ships and other things I've taken from my Mavic Pro 2 around Tampa Bay. I was mostly concentrating on my transitions with the beat of the music. So...critique away (nicely please)… Safe flying! :-)

This giant, "Norwegian Dawn" was moored in Tampa Bay this afternoon, so I had to get my DJI Mavic Pro 2, and head out to get some video of this monster. She's a gorgeous ship, and is sailing under the flag of Bahamas. She is a whopping 1092.51' in length and 125' in width. My wife and I have...

This monster was moored in Gibsonton, right off of Tampa Bay this evening, so I went down there near sunset to get some video and some pics from my DJI Mavic Pro 2 drone. I won't go there at sunset again...the sun faces directly into my lens where the best composition is, and it pretty much...

This beautiful 590' bulk carrier ship, "Illovo River" was moored in Gibsonton, right off Tampa Bay and the Alafia River, so I just had to make the short drive to get my drone in the air and take some 2.7k, 30fps video, and pictures of her. My DJI Mavic 2 Pro rocks!

Just a quick video I put together of some areas around where I live. I love living on the Gulf Coast. Lot's of wildlife and ships. Anyways, I've been practicing getting better at editing my videos, and I think this is the best one yet. You decide... Constructive criticism welcomed! Thanks...

Flying a drone from a boat is not always easy. In this case the ship was moving at about 8 knots in un-even seas and so made hand-catching a challenge. The nature of the work required that we fly while on the move, thus making the home point always receding behind us. So, we were always...

Had to fly my DJI Mavic 2 Pro out about a mile and a half to get this footage of an oil tanker heading out of Tampa Bay towards the Gulf of Mexico...destinat...

This oil tanker (I think that's what it's called), was being escorted out of the bay, heading out into the Gulf of Mexico in Tampa. I had to fly about a mile and a half to get this shot. I'm still a newbie, so any constructive criticism is welcome! :-)

Hi all, I'm planning to do some offshore flying from the Big Island in 2020 and I'm looking for some local knowledge so I can better plan my trip. 1. Are there times of the year that I should avoid flying because of weather/wind? 2. I've read some threads about taking off/landing from boats...

Hello all. New to the site, so I figured I would try to share a couple of videos. I look forward to viewing the other videos and photos here. The aircraft carrier videos were taken last week by a colleague of mine using a M2 Zoom, and edited by me. The carrier was anchored almost 3 miles from...

Hoping I can learn from your feedback. While flying I ran into a issue with someone standing over my camera gear on the groud. I’d like to get your take on how I handled it and what I could have done better. EDIT: Video removed as I intend to redo it, and make it better. Sorry for the...

Here is a cautionary tale for boat take-offs. I had permission to fly my Mavic Pro from the back of a ferry in the Mediterranean. I had hoped to fly around the vessel to practice getting some stills and video while at sea and I was given a clear deck space at the rear of the ship with railings...
