Don't worry - I'm not planning to pin all my videos here (my specialty is trying to make local reservoirs look interesting). But I am quite pleased with this one from last week. A captivating subject at sunset with that backdrop, and it's hard to go wrong.
I'm a little intimidated by these beasts and can't bring myself to fly as close as I'd like. I'm also concerned about turbulence, but didn't sense any - perhaps at closer distances? The viewing area is only about 80 metres from the nearest pylon, so the sound of the blades slicing through the air at that distance was pretty loud - adding to my sense of caution. I didn't record any sound on location but sourced some for the video that was similar to what I could hear. Enjoy!
