Submissions will be accepted until midnight October 27, 2018 EDT USA. After the entry period has been closed, the judges, made up of sponsors, approved vendors and staff, will pick the top 6 entries, and forum members will pick the top 3 as winners based on poll results. The 6 finalists entries will be shown on a new thread including a poll, allowing members to vote on their favorite entry, and comment on why they chose that particular one.

Prizes:

1st Place - Your choice of a 6 pack of either Fstop Labs @fstop.labs Mavic 2 Pro or Mavic 2 Zoom filters
2nd Place - Your choice of Mavic mug, Mavic Pro hat, or Mavic Pro Tshirt provided by @Aerial-Pixel

You don’t have to be a professional. Even if you are a beginner drone owner, we would like to see what you are capable of with a Mavic. Have fun, and let’s see what you can do.

You dont have to wait until the leaves turn color. If you start now, you can find a good area and fly it a few times to get the best shot.

P.S. Please click "like" on any posts that suit your fancy.

There have been a number of fine autumn photos posted in various threads - where are they when you need them? Here's a random burst of color to move things along:



ISO 100, f5.6, 1/400 s, RAW.

Auto settings on Mavic Air with no filters, (haven't figured out which ones to buy yet) Around three in the afternoon taken on the northern Vermont - New Hampshire border in the Connecticut River Valley. I took so many pictures it is difficult to sort through them, my wife says I didn't post the best ones. ;-)

 

[mryeje]

Shot on Mavic Air with hdr not sure of elevation but ISO was 100 and shutter speed was really high. Used gimp to do the exposure blend. Both were taken in my home town Truro Nova Scotia, the first was along the Salmon river and the other was at the town reservoir.
