Since March, I've had a DJI Mini 3 drone. This drone was a birthday gift from my dad, who supports me immensely in my photography career and wanted to give me this gift so I would have a new working tool. Although I've practiced a lot and am getting the hang of it, I must admit I've flown it very little because there's a lot of regulation regarding this in Venezuela.
In this post, I want to show you some of the photos I've taken with the drone in the few times I've had the opportunity to fly it.
These were literally the first photos I took the first time I flew it. I was testing how high I could fly it, and the screen said up to a maximum of 120 meters in height. But I live in a mountainous area, and at 75 meters, I was already getting a strong wind warning, so I had to bring it down. I couldn't take it to the maximum height.
Even so, it was enough to be above all the buildings in the city and get these beautiful aerial views:
In one of the buildings, there was a park, and I turned the camera view completely downwards and was able to get this photo that I really liked, it's very urban. I tried to make it as symmetrical as possible:
And very close to that place, there was a river. I flew the drone there and took this photo:
Another day, I had the opportunity to fly the drone from a private urbanization and took advantage of that moment to lift it and take these photos of the city:
The next photo is of a very well known church in the city:
On another day, there was a very beautiful sunset, so I decided to raise the drone to take a couple of photos, and I was super happy with the results. First, I took some photos of the sky:
And look at this strange cloud formation:
Then I turned the drone toward the city side, and the combination of artificial lights and the blue hour looked very beautiful:
I hope you liked these photos as much as I did. I'm very excited about this new tool and hope to be able to share better photos of more interesting places with you in the future!
