My latest offering;)
Overcast day: however really enjoyed composing these shots.
4 mins long. I wanted it shorter but I wanted to keep in the range of shots we set up, so it is a bit “self indulgent” for 5 large blobs of concrete;)
For those that dont know: Wallington Power Station was decommed 20 years ago and these magnificent structures are still standing.
Went with a mate and we spotted for eachother
Hope you enjoy and as always: appreciate the feedback
PS my first real full edit on FCPX

Magnificent structures & flying ( I have a ways to go yet ) What is the role of the spotter?

The spotters job is to give u an extra pair of eyes, so they can look at the drones position as it’s easy to get disoriented as you are concentrating on the “perfect” shot😉

Cheers Steve. I go by the rule that ‘presumption is not knowledge’ preferring ‘a word to the efficient is sufficient’ so thanks for the heads-up. :+1:
