@@davidharle952 The drone was on autopilot, so I just shut my eyes and waited for the splash.

New underwear needed after that one.

@@StevieProton LOL, yes!

@@theboy-uk Nobody knows. Lots of people have theories about it. The reddish colour would seem to indicate that it’s iron ore based. But, nobody knows where it’s from and how it gets here. It’s been tested and isn’t toxic but it’s starting to stain the boats that are moored there long term. One theory is that it’s coming from old mines and is being routed to the harbour due to the railway tunnel that goes under the town. So, Network Rail are involved along with the Environment Agency, plus the Harbour Commissioners and anybody else who thinks they can solve the problem. It’s been there over a year and all the headless chickens are getting nowhere.

@@StevieProton Weird, yet fascinating, as its only that one part that seems to be impacted. Great vid by the way, and the day/night transition was epic.

@@theboy-ukYeh, it looks like the inflow pipe in the corner is the source, but when the tide goes in and out the lock gates are closed during low tide and the water is fairly stagnant. Before the lock gates were installed the boats would all rest on the mud during low tide.

@@StevieProton 👍, thanks for info. Not seen many issues with stagnant water in other places with lock gates, but maybe this pollution/mineral/whatever highlights it more.

Yes, two waypoint flights. One at 2pm and one at 11pm. Then I use a grid on an adjustment layer. As long as the height, angle, and gimbal angle are the same I do a bit of fine frame adjustment along with a reduction of the opacity to align both videos together.

No, not me. I was down on the path from the Wasdale Head Inn up the valley. I have walked up Kirk Fell on that path - it's steep and brutal.

This Mosedale is one of many. It's up at the top of the Wasdale Valley. Ritson's Force is named after Will Ritson the long time landlord of the Wasdale Head Inn and reputed "World's Biggest Liar"

@@StevieProton Ah, wrong Mosedale, LOL. So this is the valley up from the NT carpark at the very end of the road?

@@theboy-uk Yeh. That’s the one. Turn left at the Inn.

@@StevieProton Yup, got it now, can follow your vid on Google Maps now :)

@@ladyintheskyuk I’m gonna start on my “to do” list on Saturday. I’ve got a full weeks worth just waiting for me.

@@KokowaSarunoKuniDesu Because my YT channel isn’t monetised I’m not making money using someone else’s talent. So, most artists allow that. It’s free publicity for them. So, no copyright strikes.

@StevieProton I'm in the same boat. Though I have had Copyright strikes from things I posted. I also get Copyright 'claims' from people who offer 'free' music sources, but these are usually allowed, and so not struck.

Where did you stay? Keswick Show was cancelled coz the field used for parking was six inches deep in water. All the local campsites have been closed and all bookings cancelled.

@@StevieProton Overlooking those fields, though slightly elevated up the base of Skiddaw.

@@theboy-uk Was it Lyzzick Hall?

@@StevieProton Milbeck

@@theboy-uk I’ve just done somebody’s family tree whose ancestors farmed at Millbeck.

@@davidharle952 Yesterday.

@@StevieProton Been blowing a gale in Aspatria.

@@ladyintheskyuk Thanks. It doesn’t look that involved but it took a bit of planning to fly and then sort out six videos.

I like quarries but they do appear to be an eyesore when they're in production. Although, a lot of them make really interesting places for wildlife after they revert back to "nature".

There are a few reasons the house hasn't been cleaned. The cost is one. 😮. £££££££££££. The house is more than 300 years old, 400 in some parts and seen better days, so to clean the stone would likely damage it more. Besides this yes, Wentworth Woodhouse was quite literally built on coal and the wealth from the local coal mines on the estate, so the black dirt is a part of it's history and we love it. ❤ We don't want it cleaning 😊

Yeh, I parked at Bowness Knott and cruised up to Black Sail gate on my eBike. It's 8 kilometres and a nice quiet bit of forestry road. No cars and I saw less than ten people all day. Just how I like it - no tourists. The worst bit is the road from Croasdale down to Bowness Knott - very narrow and lotsa bends. Once you get to the Forest England carpark the road is barriered off, so you only see the odd car going to the field centre or an odd Forest England or National Trust van. Although, all the ones I saw were just parked up and empty.

@@theboy-uk It’s 8km from the Forestry car park at Bowness Knott. Once you’re past the end of the lake you’ll hardly see anybody. Black Sail Hut is a Youth Hostel. I went up on my bike - perfect.

@@StevieProton Now if there was a nearby bike hire place, cycling up there would be epic. A nice 10-ish mile round trip, perfect afternoon out 👍

Cracking flight and footage . What drone are you using and did you have a polarising filter on 🤙

@@Aboveandbeyond76 No filters. The footage is straight out of the drone. I was flying my Magic 3 Classic. The final section was waypointed, so I could ride my bike underneath and keep the drone in sight. The bits at the top of the valley were about five flights joined together. I've been planning it for a few months and I was just waiting for a nice sunny day.

@@StevieProton you smashed it . Enjoyed watching

@@Aboveandbeyond76 It’s six flights joined together.

@@GodTierComments They have a website giving info of what’s on during the year. You could always visit and speak to them in person.

@@StevieProton Crackin' 👍

@@theboy-uk A couple of my earlier efforts taken from my mate's boat.

@@StevieProton Decent results as well, thanks for giving the URLs 👍

It's six flights joined together. I stop each flight when the drone goes nearly out of sight and I pick some easy landmarks on the ground where the flight ends for reference. Then I move locations to a new launch point, fly back past the previous stopping point and then turn around to start again where I left off. I repeat this until I get to the end. When I edit the clips together I put a grid over the top of the join to crop and move the clips to line them up. Then delete the grid and put a very short cross dissolve transition (30 frames) between clips. I use Final Cut Pro for editing. The whole distance from St Bees beach to Whitehaven harbour is about 9 kilometres.

@@StevieProton That's dedication!

@@horrgakx Luckily all the take-off points were less than 15 minutes from my house, the weather was perfect and The Dragon was at work all day.

@@ladyintheskyuk I was in the vicinity for a wedding so, I thought, why not.

Yeh. It looks like the society has a good plan for the future but it's gonna cost a lot of money.

@@davidharle952 It’s being restored over the next thirty years - £100 million to be spent.

I was there for a wedding and the groom asked the estate staff if I could fly my drone and they said it was ok although they would prefer it if I didn’t fly over the house. Happy to do that.

@@theboy-uk I’m sure you’ll be back. You get everywhere else.

@@StevieProton Hope so 👍. I'm very lucky that we do get the opportunity to see lots of our beautiful country :)

Thanks. I always try to find somewhere with a bit of history instead of all the usual Lake District stuff.
