Thanks hon, yeah, not easy, and a couple of close calls with the water tooā€¦ Lee now fancies an RC Boat, I think I will ensure he gets a bigger one, so I can follow it easier with the drones :slight_smile:

I can imagine it is not easy but you are really good at your flying so you make it look easy.

The second of 3 videos from us of the Grey Arrows Drone Club NW Group Annual Easter Meet-Up, this time the enigmatic wrecks of Fleetwoodā€¦

These boats have served their time, done their work and are now being left to be reclaimed by the ocean, sinking into the foreshore. Photogenic, but sad and abandoned, I wonder what tales they could tell - of fisher-folk battling against the elements to hew a living from the harsh sea mistressā€¦ Stories of lives well lived, of hardship and obstacles, but ultimately of the triumph of the human spirit over adversityā€¦

It is a place that is definitely worth a visit and perhaps an interesting subject for a more thoughtful, slower piece, in black and white or sepia toned, for another time, I thinkā€¦
