Sawmills in Ladysmith BC

Cool... I was docked at the marina next to the most northerly sawmill in August 2019 - and having never seen a sawmill before - I studied as much as I could from the dock. The aerial helps a lot.

As I understand - the mill crew were on strike while I was there - so no action - but my suspicion was that the crew actually wanted to go fishing during the beautiful August weather!!!

Great job blackomega! I certainly enjoyed the different perspectives of the operation and the hyperlapse was the money shot! Those little tugs were amazing at "cutting out" a bunch of floating logs into a little packet of logs that were then skillfully motored over to the crane. I thought the music also fit the video very well...good work!

Thanks a lot for watching. I love that DJI added hyperlapse to the mini 3. It unlocks so many possibilities for me
