Friars Bay

Friars Bay - 06/30/2022 12:34 PM

An early morning flight around Friars Bay before the patrons show up. Nobody wants a drone buzzing around when relaxing on the beach. My apologies for the overexposed photos that were shot into the sun.

Love the drone pics. Each pic has lots to look at.

Thanks White Tail. In a perfect world, the photos would be much better when the sun is higher but like I said, privacy for the beach goers is key. TTOL only allows 8mb photos but the originals are much much larger (almost 100 mb) and pristine in quality.

Far superior to the ones I NEVER took. Thank you so much for a whole different perspective of an area we only knew from the ground. 🙂🙂

pat, we should team up with your written reports and my aerials…lol
Carol, I remember seeing the name not long ago but I forget. I think it was for sale at the time. I’ll ask Jules when we go for dinner tomorrow night.
CaribLee…I have three RPAS’ but this is my DJI Air2s. I capture photos in RAW format thus the huge files
MXS…I’ll get some of Happy Bay before I leave
the captain…it’s getting really difficult lately to get permission through DJI but there is a workaround. If you’re interested send me a message and I’ll explain.
Thanks bostonbob
