RTF PHOTO COMPETITION - OPEN - 13/12 to 26/12 - SUNRISE / SUNSET

Well you found them :ok_hand:t2:

Hi, All,

Woke up to over an inch of snow this morning (Christmas Eve). Still there as the Sun set, so with a cold forecast will still be there on Christmas Day. Yess! So I couldn’t resist putting my drone up. Fimi A3. Straight up and down with a few wiggles (slightly blustery wind). I don’t think the gimbal liked the cold very much! Thank you Bing.

Happy Christmas.

My entry, Christmas Eve sunrise over Daer Reservoir in South Lanarkshire. Had to wait patiently for a decent forecast plus, with covid restrictions, had to stay in my local council area, so a quick google search found me this reservoir. Only problem was it is almost 1200ft above sea level, the temp was -2, the wind was blowing 9/10mph, so after 15mins I had to land as I could hardly feel my fingers :cold_face:. My M2P took it all in it’s stride though :+1:
