Photo of the month - February 2018

An aerial drone proved to be very useful in showing this property. It's the only way of showing the main house, garaging and land belonging to this property in Warwickshire not too far from Henley-in-Arden. It also had approximately eight acres of land shown to the left. Timing here was key to catch the sunlight. It had been raining for much of the day but the forecast did predict it would brighten just before the sun dropped in the afternoon. Long shadows can be problematic at this time of year, but I feel the light lifts this scene so well. So it's a big thank you to the (many) weather apps I follow for their spot on predictions.. (this time!)

Photo of the Month - December

This month's update a little later than usual, as I've just returned from a short holiday to Budapest. We enjoyed some much needed r&r, and our warm weather clothing was also needed! It's safe to say that Hungary is also pretty chilly at this time of year. This month's photo was taken from nearly 400 feet, the maximum altitude I'm permitted to fly. Anything higher than this is into helicopter territory. I was capturing the relationship here between the farmhouse, the formal gardens and several paddocks belonging to it. Thanks to the drone I was able to capture the property with all of it's land in one image. Sadly I don't 'feel' in control enough piloting with gloves on, so my fingers just about held out to land the aircraft before they dropped off.
