5 EASY Tips to Improve Your Drone Photography

Companion/Workshops/Support - bio.site/alexarmitage
After a much needed (and albeit too long) of a break. I'm back today with five tips to take better photos with your drone! I realized recently that a lot of my photos that get the most attention come from the sky, so I thought I'd make a video about the exact techniques I use to create most of my drone images.
I hope you enjoy and I'd love to know if you use any of these tips in your own work.

Nice

Met you on your Factory Butte video. We’re headed there this week. Hopefully I can use my new Air 2 S to capture some great images. And without tire tracks to ruin them. I am just figuring out LRC and it will be a journey. Thanks for all the tips. 😀👍

[@lynnnorthrup8914]

Checked BLM and ohv’s are permitted to drive in area of Factory Butte. Got tire tracks in my video as well. 🤣👎

Thanks for the informative video, Alex. I always use AEB as well and photo merge in LrC. The thing I wasn't aware of though is overlapping for HDR panorama. I'll be sure to try it out. QQ, do you always merge the 5 photos and then correct if say, the final image looks a little bright, or blown out? Or do you ever try maybe 2, 3 or 4? Last thing, I'm familiar with the exposure triangle and the principle behind it, but I always feel like I lose about 30 IQ points when I'm trying to decide what ND filter to use. I don't know if you cover that in any of your videos, since I just subscribed, but that would be very helpful. Thanks again! 👍

[@AlexArmitage]

I would only worry about ND filters when shooting video. Otherwise they aren’t that necessary for photos!
