It was a dreary day but I'll take it! http://www.mhmyers.com/gopro/philly1.jpg It's on a radio controlled style like helicopter, right? I think it's a fantastic photo. I once thought of getting something like that to do aerial photos for real estate. The thoughts of collisions with power lines dissuaded me though... Yes, called a Blade 350 GX. It's GPS controlled so it will land at the spot it takes off without any assistance. Wow! I want one. |

Especially a sunny day without any clouds so there wouldn't be any dark shadowed areas (from the clouds). I *like* the shadows and clouds. It's like it's nature's vignette. To each their own. I've been told it's a detraction. I see your point, though. It is more natural looking... |

I can't afford it, but it still isn't that expensive. |

Personally I like overcast for many images, and the magic hour(s) for landscape. -- PeterN |

That's less than the price of five to six meals in a decent restaurant. :-p -- PeterN |
