Thank you! Yes, that's Mt. St. Helens.

The winter forest glows with the soft light of a January afternoon high in the Cascade Mountains near Mt. St. Helens. Silver firs rustle in a light breeze that heralds the coming of new snow, and Gray Jays flit through the canopy above. Snowshoeing is great way to get out for a hike during the...

I think the Statue of Liberty is a special case - it appears to be on a list of specific sites where the airspace itself is closed. The NPS website states that you can fly over NPS land so long as you don't take off or land within the boundaries. However, the website does highlight a few other...

I'm really not a fan of DJI's heavy handed software - I know it's to stop people from doing dumb things, but it's so buggy and stupid that it ends up being a liability for everyone! I really hate the 1500 foot ceiling they enforce, as where I live there are lots of places where you need a lot...

That's a pretty incredible bridge! It's too bad PA bans drones in State Parks, Washington recently did the same (not entirely banned, but the convoluted permit process is essentially the same as a ban!). That's why even though I live in Washington I enjoy travelling to Oregon to fly as they have...

Thanks! I always half expect someone to jump from the bushes shouting and red in the face, furious that I dare to fly a drone......

I used Adobe Premier - I recently switched from DaVinci Resolve. It worked well and is free, but Premier just works better in number of different ways.

I drove down from Alaska a few years ago through the Yukon - spectacular place! Got to see a bit of Kluane National Park and Whitehorse, so many beautiful, empty places up there. Wish I could go and spend a month or two exploring......

Thank you, but it's actually Washington State! There is also (at least) one in the Yukon, as well as a few others in Washington. Now I want to take my drone and go flying in the Yukon......

Thank you!

Oops, just realized that I posted this under "Discussion" instead of "photos and video"! :rolleyes:

I filmed this with the DJI Spark nearly a year ago, but didn't do anything with the footage until now. Looking back it's crazy how much better at flying I am now than I was back then! It's still got enough interesting mountain scenes to be worth sharing, and I hope to return soon to fly there again.

Thank you!

Thank you - the music was created by an artist called Martynaus Lau who goes by the name Whitesand on Youtube. He's one of a number of Youtube musicians who produce copyright free music for anyone to use so long as they credit him. You can find a link to the original song in the description of...

I had intended to finish this video several weeks ago, but when I went to edit it I found a lot of the footage I had captured to be lacking. I had to wait till I was able to return to the area to film the second half of the video. It just so happened that this coincided with the release of the...
