Flying Very Low Over Water

I took this footage of the River Torrens at dusk. It’s colours are very subdued and muted. Let me know what you think.

What I think? Super brave! so much branches and gras at the water's edge. If one hit a prop sparky were done.... But the result is really cool footage!

Very nice flying and editing. Great job! Loved the content and the music, they went together well. Thanks

All I can say is "WOW". Thanks for sharing.

Fantastic! It looks like the props created a slight ripple on the water. Beautiful composition.

Nice video. Really loved the low pass over the water, brave. The composition and music really fit together nicely. Perhaps a wee bit too dark at times, but that's just my personal opinion.

Paul215, not “Super brave,” just watchful and careful flight management.
Thanks for the comments.

The ripples make a cool effect, don’t they, MccloudSpark?

Simon Cooper · Jan 23, 2019

Thanks for the comments Barbara. As I’ve said before, the dark footage wasn’t specifically intentional, however, when I put it all together, I really liked the effect. So, I posted it. Cheers.

Very nice video Simon. Please give me the exact location. I go next week to Australia to visit my daughter and ofcourse Sparky is going with me.
Thanks from Bert in The Netherlands.

Nice!

Brilliant footage. Well impressed.

bertgroothuis, I live in Athelstone, along the River Torrens. The river follows ‘Linear Park’ all the way to the ocean. There are plenty of great opportunities. Just be mindful that some councils have by-laws restricting drone flying and also that the airport is close to Linear Park, west of the city.
