[@BorisEkner]

At last, a still photographer’s unique best use of a drone. Thank you! ❤️

[@RichieW]

Blew my own socks off with my first AEB HDR picture with no photography experience and only a week of owning my new Mavic. I have no business making pictures that look good enough for a magazine but here we are. Great vid! deffo incorporate this advise into my growing arsenal.

[@alangardiner872]

Lovely in many aspects of that word...the informative values, the narrative and for once..Music that enhances and doesn't destroy a video!! 10/10..Thank you.

[@ibrahimbinali5683]

Your previsualization on the scene that you've taken shows that you've very sharp mind that able to see the beauty of any landscape that many others may not able to see beyond a plain landscape that doesn't have anything to impress at first sight. Some may have the best tools in photography or videography but do not have an eye and mind like yours will be ashamed. I'm ashamed and thank for the eye opening presentation. Bravo!

[@Shtofman]

You are the first person I have ever seen point out the ability to adjust the gimbal roll to straighten a horizon for stills, bravo sir!!! 👍👏

[@pawem8419]

that Road hitting the coast in that angle is just perfect, great video

[@andrewfrost8866]

I find your films so beautifully crafted, and that, together with your intelligent, informative, and passionate presentation, makes then a true ‘must see’ experience.

[@Andrew_marr]

Wow that's so kind of you to say Andrew. Thank you for share your comment, that really means a lot!

[@petermcilroy5742]

Really enjoyed this - has opened my eyes to the fact you can use a drone for "proper" landscape photography. Incredibly helpful to show us how you refine your settings as you go.

[@davidfitz-henley7915]

As a trained professional award-winning landscape photographer, I found your video to offer lots of excellent tips and great advice. Thanks a lot. Keep up the great work. David Fitz-Henley (Jamaica)

[@Andrew_marr]

Great to hear David! Glad you found the video informative. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts.

[@JoselDuran]

One of the best drone photography video I have seen so far. Thank you for your tips.

[@parrotheadstx]

One of the best, if not the best drone photography video tutorials I've watched. Thank you. 🤙

[@geoffedwards7056]

Good 'features' analysis and showing how these features change the final result of capturing the subject at it's best.

[@markharris4022]

You really know stuff and the way you put together this video definitely says a lot about you and your esthetic. It was an honor to watch.

[@adampapworth]

Your fresh approach to this video made it stand out from the many similar videos i watch. Thanks.

[@Andrew_marr]

Thanks so much cheaper Adam for your kind feedback, I hope to make another video soon, cheers!👍

[@MattFreestonePictures]

Somehow only just caught up with this. A superb video, beautifully shot. Thank you, Andrew. Hoping to put some of these techniques to use in my drone films.

[@timwadedah2292]

Stumbled across this video, what great content. And filmed in god's back yard of WA. Legend.

[@davidthomas670]

Hi Andrew, absolutely superb, not only is your photography superlative, but your video's are crammed full of information and so good to watch, you are definitely the best channel on KZbin because you give so much and expect nothing in return so thank you.

[@peterhewitson71]

Thanks again for another great video , I have a mavic pro I brought second hand and after seeing you videos I can't wait to get out there and give photography a go rather than just footage for my normal videos .

[@larrymarshallphotography3896]

As a fellow landscaper photographer, this video is invaluable. thanks so much

[@4k_AZ]

Underrated content. 10/10

[@Andrew_marr]

Haha, just a little channel chugging along. Thanks for the feedback and encouragement.

[@davidmaltby2065]

Brilliant and informative. As a new drone owner this was super informative. Just completed a sunset with my drone

[@timwilliams1873]

Andrew, I am very new at drone flight and have now caught the fever to learn more about using my drone to catch landscape shots. I have always had that hidden passion for photography. I have found your video very helpful and look forward to learning more from you and your blogs.

[@Andrew_marr]

Thanks Tim, welcome to the fantastic world of photography. I am so glad you've found my videos helpful. I have plenty more planned for the new year, so stay tuned. If there anything specific you want to learn, let me know, and I try and cover it in a video. Thanks again for sharing your story, cheers! :)

[@brettkri9866]

Hi Andrew, I'm going to go to Canada and Alaska for 27 days and I really won't to get some great (well I hope they will be) I'm going to use my Mavic Pro and my wife Catherine, will be using her iPhone 6. She has beaten me every time so far. I will look into you previous tuits cause I love the way you about your profession and the way you explain so a fool like me can understand what's going on. thanks your a gem

[@GBarchy]

Great video Andrew. I've not used my Mavic Pro for still photographs, but think after watching your video I am not using it to its full ability. I'm heading out in about 20 minutes (after my phone charges up) and will give it a go.

[@KOTW.Adventures]

Thanks for a great video. Came here via WA Camping's channel and was not disappointed. Will definitely be checking out more of your photography videos.

[@TheOldGeekGuy]

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I still have the Magic Pro and use it often. I will follow some of your suggestions.

[@markrmonteith]

Enjoyed this - using the DJI Mini 3 Pro now!

[@johnirvine5514]

I've just discovered your channel, Andrew. I have been keen on photography ever since I was a boy (long time ago!), but only recently I bought a drone and started to use a flying camera. I love the fun of flying and the new perspectives it provides for capturing images. Many thanks for this video - I thoroughly enjoyed it and I plan to watch more of your postings. Best wishes, John.

[@CesarGarcia-uz5pv]

[@Andrew_marr]

Great to hear Michael, thanks for your comment. The Mavic Pro is a great drone, I've just recently released an updated video that you might want to check out! 👍

[@darrenbooker9438]

Fantastic video Andrew, thanks for sharing your tips on drones, well done mate!

[@jcinaz]

I’ve had my drone for almost a year and never knew what it could really do until now. Guess I just have to knuckle down and start learning. Thanks.

[@eleeadams]

Excellent tips. Infinite number of vantage points with drones. Battery issues. Can’t always wait as long as you’d like for the light. But wonderful results!

[@Andrew_marr]

Cheers Ed, with infinite number of vantage points it can be a challenge to decide on the best composition. Alway good to have a few batteries charged and ready to go! 👍

[@edgardofaro8622]

Very informative and in details. Thank you very much.

[@Andrew_marr]

Glad it was helpful Edgardo, Cheers mate! :)

[@MichaelFollan]

Fantastic video and timely for me as I practice with my Mavic Air. Thank you

[@endyX286]

awesome video. thanks for the tips. learning is never ending.

[@Andrew_marr]

Thanks Fendi, I'm working on a follow up video with the drone, it should be out in the next couple of weeks.

[@oldgitwithnewtech2124]

Fantastic pictures I mainly shoot video but you have made me want to shoot Pictures now!

[@timohendriks183]

great tutorial. and brings back my memory my vist sugar loaf rock. thank you!

[@TheCavecrawler]

I have just bought a Mavic pro for the same reason. I'm an amateur photographer and have found your clip very useful and hope it will help me get the very best out of the drone. Now need some tips in editing the bracketed images in Lightroom or photoshop. Thanks for the movie, beautifully done!

[@DCDLaserCNC]

Great tips and awesome photo compositions! Thanks for sharing!

[@Andrew_marr]

No worries, glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the feedback on the images. It's a beautiful location to fly and take photos! :)

[@IanL1]

Great video mate, excellent use of the nice light.

[@Andrew_marr]

Cheers Ian, I'm glad you enjoyed that!

[@paulwillmott8931]

Beautiful shots

[@moondawn1000]

Thanks Andrew for another great vlog, your images are excellent as usual.

[@Dhathuruveri.Zuvaana]

Thank you Andrew. Learned so many things

[@Andrew_marr]

Thanks for that, I'm hoping to follow this up with an updated version soon!

[@wza360]

Great video. I love how techniques shared. Enjoyed watching, got good ideas. Thanks.

[@MrAerialDrone]

I just learned a lot from you I will put it to action

[@ArtOfDavidAmos]

That was a beautiful video Andrew, well done, one of the best and simplest, and straight to the point. I have the Phantom 3, but I am having a nightmare just keeping the video signal. Even when it's not that far away, I shoot real estate, and lately, it has been just a nightmare. I have searched everywhere on how to fix this.

[@Andrew_marr]

Thanks very much for your kind comments and feedback. I haven't had an issue with the signal on the Mavic Pro, I hear the signal of the Mavic 2 Pro is even better.

[@lenorawillis-photonobics4182]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Great photos!

[@SteveMillerhuntingforfood]

Really nice Andrew! I've been flying a Mavic Pro for almost 2 years, mostly for agriculture use and did not know it shoots RAW. I have never ventured into the camera settings menu. As soon as I saw this video I realized I'm not using all the camera's potential. I can not wait until my next flight so I can start utilizing those features. So glad I saw this video....Thanks.

[@Yaizacar]

An amazing picture!

[@stephenhartphotography5855]

Great videography. I enjoyed the vlog Andrew.

[@RexMerino]

Thanks for sharing marr i learn again how to take photo using drone

[@Andrew_marr]

Cheers Rex, glad you enjoyed the video mate! 👍

[@overlandphotography]

Very good Andrew !... tks for sharing

[@stevemathis4159]

Great video. I don’t have a drone but really enjoy the videos. Thanks for sharing this video!

[@BruceMcGrath1954]

Hello from Gippsland Andrew, on to my third drone... phantom 2, phantom 3 now Mini 2. The small package is the way to go. The phantom 2 is worth 0. The 3 is a good unit for particular applications. I love the aspect you can get with a drone. Sometimes it’s good enough to be just 5 or 10 meters up and gives you like 10m tripod. Excellent content 👍🏻 and from a land down under...! Not the fells in the lakes district!! Cheers 👍🏻🍷❤️🇦🇺

[@Andrew_marr]

Hey cheers Bruce, thanks for the feedback mate. Glad you enjoyed this! 👍

[@RiggersUK]

Great video and nice tips. The only thing you didn’t mention which I feel is really important was about switching to portrait mode and stitching. I would ALWAYS do this. Take you first shot for example.... if you turn to portrait mode then take 2 or 3 shots and stitch them together you overcome the fact the mavic only has a 12mp sensor. You can still bracket each of these shots. When in LR first convert each batch of 5 bracketed shots to HDR then when you have 3 HDR dng’s you stick these together in LR as a pano. This gets you a much higher res image.

[@RiggersUK]

*stitch*

[@dhansel4835]

Here is a couple of suggestions I would like DJI to incorporate. 1. In the "P" mode have ALL collision sensors turn on or make it in the menu what collision sensors you can activate. This would keep you from flying sideways in a tree. 2. I would like to swap the settings in "LEFT" gimbal dial so I would rotate it to the "right" to point the camera down and rotate it "LEFT" to bring the camera back up.

[@Andrew_marr]

Interesting suggestions, I wonder if DJI are listening! :)

[@johnkelm1764]

Great video Andrew. Makes me want to purchase a drone even more now. Informative tips and a great location as well. Thanks!!

[@David_Keith]

Thanks for a great video Andrew, this is the first time I've seen the drone used for stills!

[@stephanepost]

That’s funny! I have yet to use mine for filming! :-P

[@leannegeisler1263]

Great video Andrew. I have only just received my Mavic Pro and am looking forward to getting out there with it and taking some amazing shots like yours. Thanks for your information on how to use.

[@HorasOciosas]

really good tips, thanks for sharing! keep up the good shots!

[@Andrew_marr]

Thanks very much for that, glad it was helpful! 👍

[@helenagustavsson5633]

Thanks for all tihe tips! Amazing photos. I am in the process of buying my first drone.

[@HikeFly22]

Really amazing photos

[@namthainam]

My jaw dropped a few times. Thanks for opening my eyes!

[@Andrew_marr]

Thanks for that Nam, Drones incredible little cameras for landscape images! :)

[@Darren-Green]

I spent many years shooting stills and just a 'hint' of GoPro footage. Only just ordered my first drone today (Mavic Pro2) so watching loads of KZbin about it of course. You shots are so simply done but thanks to the thought and attention to the details and lighting they come out stunning. I have just subscribed.

[@Bionic_Rob]

Thanks Andrew, love your work. Beautiful scenes and photographs.

[@seandefreitas1874]

Very inspiring video. Has given me some tips for stills using AEB on my M2P in Tassie. Many thanks.

[@PeterMcCabePhoto]

Just about to buy one of these, great to see the controls within the app and how they can be used.

[@davesfilmingservices4377]

I've been a filmmaker for over 40 years and flying drones for 8 years. Just got into taking stills with my drone. Your tips are extremely useful. So I'm going to try them out. Stupid to say I don't shoot in 4:3, film is all 16:9. So I'll change my photos to this setting. I've never used the AEB before so that's a new one on me. Many thanks. By the way where were you ?

[@shaniawlfgrl]

Wonderful Andrew! Thank you!! Can you please start posting what music you are using also when showing your beautiful landscapes. Thanks!

[@hartleygabolinscy3152]

Wow!!! This channel has a very cool vibe and fab information for every detail. Well done. ( new subby) Best happiness from nz. 👍🌏👍 Waiting for the book, lol. 😊😊😊

[@walt5594]

[@vitorgarcia1958]

Excellent tips! Congrats.

[@lonschultz-coastalscaerial7467]

Excellent video. Going to use bracketing on my next flight with Phanthom 4 Pro. Keep up the great work.

[@allangosling6134]

Hi Andrew Happy New Year. I have just bought Mavic Pro2 and smart controller, slowly working my way through the large learning curve. Thank you very much for detailed insight to landscape photography.

[@Andrew_marr]

Congrats on your new purchase Allan, not only do you have some learning, but you have a heap of fun ahead of you...enjoy! 👍

[@terrymiller1228]

Nice informative video. I'm new to drones but the photography/video aspect is what peek my interest.

[@AdrianW_photo]

Outstanding video. Great tips. No drone, yet. My next major purchase so this was most timely.
