Welcome to the squadron.
You’ll find a few markers in dronescene from myself and others in your neck of the woods to help you get going. 
Take a look at some of the RTF (reason to fly) challenges in the challenges section too which will often give you less obvious and more interesting subjects to photograph from the air.

Thanks firstadekit, I have already seen that post in places in my area and will check them out
Where can I find the RTF CANT see it in the menu
I have a question on airport zone
See picture of the zone with dji geo zone making the runway part longer
My question is am I ok to fly in any area outside the zone, I have pin pointed ENVILLE as a place I want to fly .
Is it safe as long as anywhere outside the zone ? Even if it not close to it?
Think you ended up starting a new topic but turn the DJI layer off.
Welcome to GADC
Yes as long as you’re not in the zone or the extended bits. These are to give clearance to the flight paths for runways.
Hate to be on final to land, and a drone starts buzzing you
Welcome to the forum. I know Kinver well.
You’d get some cracking shots from Kinver edge or up Clent hills

Hi @Sky_Sat and welcome. I haven’t been a member for long and I’m not big on social web sites, but this place is really good. I’ve found that taking an active part in the community has really helped me learn about the hobby. I’ll be entering my first competition, the 5 in 5 January challenge with no hopes of winning, just to give me more experience and for the fun of taking part.
Cheers,
Tony
