It is amazing how drone technology has progressed over the years. I watch a few different motorsports - and they have camera drones fast enough to keep up with the cars/boats/etc - and it is amazing footage.

I have been tempted many times to buy one, but I always come to the realization rotating through my camera collection to keep them all exercised is enough work to do.

Wonderful gradients of color in that shot Beth!

thanks gary. i've been playing around with drones for almost a decade now. but mostly at work and i can't share those photos. this is my 4th personal drone and the first one that i feel is capable of taking photos that i can print at a decent size and don't fall apart during editing.

thanks paul. my drone tops out at roughly 60 mph, but it will probably never go that fast in the real world. you'd have to have perfect flight conditions and a tail wind. some of the racing drones get up to 100mph. i'd love an fpv drone, but unless i get more into shooting video, i can't really justify it.
