I had been practicing and studying drone operation for about 5 months, hoping to be able to pick up a camera drone some day. My amazing wife found an incredible deal on a used DJI Phantom 3 Standard which she gave me for Christmas.
For my first project, I created this study of a tree by our house which we are both absolutely in love with. I shot it over three days with the Phantom and with my iPhone 6 Plus on a video tripod.
I am a nazi about safe drone operation. This park is within 5 miles of a small, private airport. The FAA requires drone pilots to contact any airports about flights within 5 miles. The guy who runs this airport is very friendly to drone pilots and has been helpful to me.
Looking forward to continuing to learn and grow and make more stuff.
THANK YOU HEATHER!!!!
