I’m hoping to get some early morning shots of the new bridge myself, think I’ll wait till the crowds have gone though.

:thinking: Will there be any “crowds” … “early morning”?

It was mental yesterday when it opened to the public, was more manageable today. Certainly sparse enough to fly the length of the bridge without feeling I was pushing the bounds of ‘crowds’

Just popped a video in the Youtube section

It’s going to be closed from 7pm till 2am for the next couple of evenings to conduct testing on the electrics.
I imagine that will include opening and closing the bridge along with different settings of the lighting.

Might be worth going down to catch it.

Went out today for my first flight on my own…Had to remind myself how to switch everything on, get them to connect, take a photo/video, etc. and of course be able to land safely!

Here’s one of my first photo’s…view towards Manchester in the distance.

With the forecast of a cold clear morning I headed down to Glasgow’s latest bridge. The forecast didn’t disappoint, a lovely sunrise though a chilly 3 degrees.
Just as I arrived I’d noticed another drone flying around the bridge. I’d just got my drone in the air and positioned over the middle of the river when a dog walker appeared and said, ‘oh it was your drone, I don’t like being followed’ I explained I’d just arrived but that there had been another drone in the area. Then said, I doubt they’d be wanting to follow you when there’s a new bridge to play with. She just glared at me and walked off :rofl:

All images Mavic 3 Classic. I went for a slower shutter speed so I could stop down the aperture to create a starburst effect on the lights of the bridge.

The Govan-Partick Bridge connects Water Row in Govan to Pointhouse Quay in Partick, close to the Riverside Museum. The bridge which is 8m wide and 110m long was opened on 6th September 2024. It is one of the longest opening pedestrian/cycle bridges in Europe.
