      Beautiful shot, Dave.
      That's the kind of canoeing i would like to do. The paddles stay in the bottom under the seat.

        Thanks Steve. I like it that way too. It's fast enough to do some distance but still slow enough to soak up the scenery.

          Agreed, beautiful shot of a beautiful canoe. The point of view is unusual and interesting.

            Dave R, nice shot. Am I wrong or can I just see the shadow of a drone in the water below the canoe? I may have to get my son's drone out and start playing with it.

              Good eye Rich. Its a DJI Mini2 hovering about 20 feet off the deck.

              I have had a lot of fun the last 2 weeks seeing with a new eye country I've visited regularly for 30 years. Mostly stills, fooling only with ISO and speed, because video takes way more skill than I have. Good video requires good piloting with accurate, smoooth control, with constant twiddling of sticks and thumbwheel for go up, go down, fly sideways, look sideways, and camera up/down, all the time composing and setting up for what is coming.

              These two pics were taken at sunset when there was a brief burst of light from between the clouds and horizon.

                Nice. A few years our shop had some sort of ad agency come out to to do some still shots and video for the company website. The drone operator's skill was quite impressive.

                  Really cool shots Dave. We can definitely now appreciate why you've got a motor on your canoe. That's a lot of water down there.

                    Thanks Sandy. Its 15 miles from the landing to the cabin.

                    Glenn, I have a newfound appreciation for the operator abilities in movies and youtube video now. Good cinemagraphic shots are difficult to create, easy to watch.

                    This gadget is great for amateurs. There are lots of image editing programs available, but even the company app for the phone is way more than I can use. These pics are unedited except for crop and file size.

                            Excellent image of the Pale Swallowtail Sandy. My guess is there is a row of field guides on your bookshelf. Good stuff.

                                Thanks Bob and Dave. Yeah we've got a bunch of guides gathering dust. Haven't used them much since discovering Google though. LOL.
