The Perfect Storm is Brewing in the Air

Here are some really cool photos I shot the other day from my Drone. I was doing a live broadcast you can see on my Facebook, and of course during the broadcast I was shooting video and stills.

This day was crazy, the sky just turned black and you could see a crazy storm coming in from the west. I quickly put my Drone up in the air and started shooting before the storm could reach me.

This was a great flight, I always tell people that bad weather makes for great pictures. Remember when there is a storm, do not pack up your things and go home, instead pull out your best gear and go shoot. You will be surprised.

7 mile bridge from a drone

I shot these from my drone on my last trip to Key West. This is the 7 mile bridge, one of my favorite places to fly a drone from.

I come here often and every time I do I bring my drone. I can go on and on about shooting with a drone, but instead I have made a video about it I also explain how I get the water to look the way it does. Scroll to the bottom of this post and check out the video.

Here is a video I did on how I shot all these.

Photos of a crew ship out at sea

I had the opportunity to work with the crew ship, I wanted to capture some amazing photos of the ship out at sea. This gave me the perfect opportunity to pull my drone out and get some amazing shots. Flying around a moving ship can be a bit tricky but it is a lot of fun, and as you see here you can get some epic photos.

The key here is to stay with the ship, if you fly too slow you can easily loose your self and get way behind, lucky for me I always kept my eye on the drone and it never went more then 50 yards away from me.

After all said and done, I edited the photo inside Lightroom and no need to say that the photos look really nice. Another safe flight and successful shoot.

Venice Beach California Skate Park Shot From A Kite

Venice Beach California, one of the coolest places in the world. I actually shot this photo about 4 years ago and I shot it from a kite. Yes a kite. Before drones were easily available and affordable there were kites, and believe it or not I used to do lots of kite photography.

Those days were awesome, setting up a kite and this crazy rig to go on the kite where your camera would attach to, it was scarry to say the least but lots of fun. It is fully controllable from a remote control except you can’t see the what you are shooting, its kind of a guessing game.

I have really been into this aerial photography thing for a while, its so cool seeing the world from above.
