I love the city of Fort Worth. It doesn’t seem like a city really, more like a town. It has a cool vibe, is laid back, and the people are friendly for the most part. Some friends were celebrating their birthdays in Fort Worth yesterday so I went out to give my regards (what they did with them I have no idea). Since I was planning on having a few drinks I stayed at a local hotel and ubered back and forth to the party venue, which was nice and convenient with my American Express Platinum Uber credits.
Anyhoo, this morning I broke out the drone and sent it up over Fort Worth. I flew safely and never had the drone out of my sight, just for the record. I put together a panorama of the images I took, which was much harder than I thought in Photoshop, but I’m really happy with the result and the detail from the Sony sensor in my Phantom 4 Pro. Soooo please enjoy this week’s Picture of the Week!
For the photographers: Like I said above, this one was a total beating. It’s a 3-shot horizontal panorama and I had the camera tilted slightly down on the gimbal to get a good rule of thirds composition with the sky. That made for some massive distortion that I had to correct and I had no choice but to use the adaptive wide angle filter in Photoshop and define each and every horizontal and vertical line. I think the shot is completely worth it, for the record, but wow it took a while. Let me know if you have any questions!
Great shot. Love the courthouse in the foreground!
