A farm in a very wet part of Minnesota.

#Drones4Fun #DronePhotography #Minnesota

Aerial photo of barn with large wetland in background. In foreground, some patches of vegitation appear to have been recently burned.

Took this #Drones4Fun photo over the weekend. Near Farm Island Lake in Minnesota. #Cuyuna #DronePhotography #Barns #AerialPhotography #DJIAir3

Aerial view of a small red barn in a spring landscape when most of the trees are still bare, except for groves of evergreens. There is a small lake in the background.

Made this drone video of large ice sheets pushing up against the shore to create piles of ice shavings. These are small, but can reach 6 or 8 feet tall. (See piles in distance). youtu.be/LRndEALaJkQ?... #Minnesota #Drones4Fun #MilleLacsLake

I've been away for a while. This winter I've been taking drone photos at a much reduced rate and haven't posted any for a while.

Need to get some momentum going before spring, the second best time of the year for drone photography.

Rows of short dead corn stalks pertruding from a few inches of white snow on wavey terrain.

Came here about an hour ago to post this. Finallly, getting to it.

I just like the symmetry, shapes, and patterns in this image. I also find that red barns really help make a winter photo (subtly) pop.

Sometimes the drone photos aren't that pretty, but they get you close to things you would not otherwise get close to.

Close up photo of birds nests made of mud on side of bridge. Underneath each nest is a very large pile of dried bird poop.

I haven't posted any #Drones4Fun images lately. Opportunities to fly have been limited by weather, short days, and busy schedule.

I'm also distracted a bit by my new DSLR, handheld camera.

This one is not a great photo, but it's one of the better (more interesting) images I've been able to get in the last week.

This is an interesting human made harbor on Lake Minnetonka, in Minnesota.

Ariel view of a human made harbor with channels and strips of dark brown swamp grass. Some homes are built on a island in middle of small harbor and a road borders harbor on top and left sides of image.

Now, back to my usual drone photography.

Stumbled upon this golf coures under development last weekend.

#Drones4Fun #DronePhotography #Minnesota #MNastodon #GolfCourse #DJI

Aerial view (at an angle) of a bright green golf fairways without any vegitation between them or anyone playing gold. Bumps and mounds on fairways cast long shadows as it is clearly close to sundown.

Is it fair that I get credit for this image or should all accolades go to the owners of this beautiful barn for placing it so perfectly for me to find tonight.

Aerial view of an upkept red barn with white trim. In forground is a lake and the sun is setting. The sky is a warm orange as the sun peeks through an overcast sky shortly before dusk.

Took this one last weekend in Shakopee, Minnesota.

Another red barn. Can't get enough of them. I was out looking for fall colors this past weekend and found that there isn't much left. But, there are little pockets here and there of faded color ready to fall.

#drones4fun #darktable #photography #minnesota #barns

Aerial view of a faded red barn. In the background we can see a field divided up by many white fences. Most of the leaves have fallen, but a few trees hold onto faded leaves.

I've been out flying the drone almost every day the last 2 weeks. It's been a photographic fall season with great weather.

Have I mentioned that I love these rolled hay bales. In this case, a long line of them.

#drones4fun #HayBales #Photography #Minnesota #MNastodon

A hundred or more large rolls of hay lined up in five rows in a field along a row of birch trees.

I am having a hard time not taking more photos every day. The colors are so gorgeous. This one took a bit more processing than usual.

#Darktable #Drones4Fun #DronePhotography #Minnesota #Cuyuna #landscapephotography #Landscapes #FullMoon

Aerial photo of a penisula sticking out into a calm lake just after sunset. The trees on the banks of the lake are showing their autumn colors and a full moon is visible in the sky.

I had to get up earlier than usual today and was rewarded with fog over the lake.

#Drones4Fun #Photography #DronePhotography #Minnesota #Fog #DarkTable

Two old boathouses along a relatively still late. Trees are turning yellow and red. In the background we steam or fog rising off the lake.

The sunset is partially hidden behind scattered clouds and there is a silouette of a boat on a calm lake with scattered swamp grass in the forground.

Looking down on the rooftops of several two story buildings on the main street of a small town.

I was hoping there would be more fall colours in angrignon park today but I guess I'm a bit early #drones4fun
