Camera -90 Degrees

52 Frames - Week 15 - A Different Angle

In retirement, I've been experimenting flying a drone and shooting photos & video when the weather and flying conditions permit.  It's pretty awesome!

Hovering directly above at about 12' with the camera pointed straight down, this selfie is a first from this angle.

Love and Freedom

I was challenged by a cousin who just started following my blog to create a photo depicting love and freedom.

This painting by Chinese artist Li-Li conveys those attributes.

What do you think, Chuck?

Diamonds Deserted

52 Frames - Week 14 - Curves (Alternate)

For my retirement, one of my former partners bought me a gift that I would never have bought for myself; a drone.  I've been experimenting when the weather and flying conditions permit.  It's pretty awesome!

I shot the curves of the baseball diamonds from about 100' up.

Path Deserted

52 Frames - Week 14 - Curves

The Des Plaines River Trail South is usually filled with walkers and cyclists.  In these days of Stay-at-Home orders, oftentimes we have this path to ourselves.  Trying to get at least a 3-mile walk or a bike ride in every day.
