some of what i've edited so far.

dji mavic 4 pro. a storm passed by a few miles in front of me. i liked how the light was hitting the clouds, rain and hills. i pulled off of i-15 in idaho specifically to fly the drone straight up to shoot over the roadway. i just couldn't get the right angle from the ground.

stopped in a tourist trap town on my way through south dakota with a few old buildings and some fake buildings that had been decorated with old west town stuff. it was a decent place to get out and stretch my legs after 3 days in the car. grabbed this in the blacksmith's shop. fuji gfx 100s ii & 45-100mm

Great photos – they’re all very striking. I really like those clouds and the panoramic views, and also the little church with its concentrated iconic presence. But it’s the two fine circles in the last one, caught in that light, that capture my memory more than anything else. It must have been a wonderful holiday for a photographer like you.
 
You're lucky that you get to travel as much as you do (I think). I used to get up on Monday, get on a plane and not get home until Friday. It's not as much fun as people think, is it?
