Hello all! I stumbled across this website by accident after researching where I could fly my new Mini 4 Pro drone. I have to say that I have been impressed by how friendly everyone is. So, I decided to sign up. I am what you could describe as an amateur photographer, and I decided to invest in a drone to expand my hobby. If anyone can recommend some great sites for drone photography in the Herts and Beds area, I would be grateful. ---

HI Bill - I’m just down the road a bit in Harpenden. Also recently (couple of months ago) got a Mini 4 and started playing around with it, and also looking for decent places nearby to get good photos and videos. DroneScene, as others have mentioned, is pretty good for finding locations. Drone flying does appear to be a bit of a minefield, with lots of the interesting looking places being restricted in one way or another, but I plan to try Ivinghoe Beacon when the weather improves a bit. Need to be a bit careful around Dunstable Downs due to the gliding club nearby, but I think there are some decent places nearby. ---
