I did a small project yesterday, and spent the entire time dodging the law and other such "authorities." I took advantage of a beautiful but very hot Miami day to try to capture drone views of downtown from across the water. Miami has virtually shut off each and every access to the water's edge. High fences, green solid plastic barriers, etc. are present at all the areas I used to have access to for amazing views. The developers have taken over. One parking lot guard circled continuously, eyeing me and my tripod carefully (doing a timelapse sequence too). I flew after he momentarily left the lot to re-start his rounds. Practicing my stealth technique (under a tree. in the shade). I still was asked to lower my drone and move on. I was able to grab shots here and there but all were rushed. I did no flying. Just put the drone straight up in the air about 85 feet,shot my shots, and came right down as fast as possible. The air was filled with helicopters, noticeable in the 1st image. Here are my results. These are all manual - e.g.: multiple shots with 30% overlaps, and developed in Photoshop. Anywhere from 5 to 11 contiguous shots.
