The resort is located on the Sandia Reservation about one mile north of my son's home in Albuquerque. My launch point was near the reservation boundary a half-mile or so south of the casino. Flashing Firehouse Mini-Pro strobes made it easy to see the drone in the gathering darkness. There was an event in the outdoor amphitheater (the circular structure at left center), so I maintained a respectful distance. Most of my shots were failures. There was a storm brewing over the mountains just east of us, gusty outflow winds were tossing the Air 3 around, and my ISO was too low. For whatever reason, this frame turned out OK. 24mm, f/1.7, ISO 200, 1/15-second. If there's a next time, I'll boost ISO to yield faster shutter speeds. Live and learn.
