My latest effort. I hope someone likes it.
I was asked why I didn't fly through the rock. I was controlling from 500 metres away and my skill is still evolving.

That was very good. Love the color and the clarity of the water. The rock has an interesting shape.

Flying "thru" the rock would take a good amount of skill and nerve. Not to mention flying from a distance too. Younger folks who've played video games most of their life can probably do it with one eye closed, but an old fart like me with shaky hands and such - don't think so. Maybe getting a closer shot and seeing exactly how big the opening is - I may try it - but would want to be front and center of it and not depending on my video feed, should I lose signal at the wrong moment.

Ya, I wouldn’t have tried to fly thru the hole either . That’s just ASKING for disaster.

Indeed, without knowing size of opening, being closer etc. a risky chance going 'through'. You'd probably have the obstacle-avoidance sensors (if not disabled) throwing a hissy-fit (and slap into a wall :-( plus (I'm assuming) the suddenly-enclosed area would create all sorts of scary down-draft/side-draft issues ? Enjoy it for what it is - great turquoise :-)
