Smile for the drone

Our German friend has a drone and we took it to Lesmurdie Falls yesterday. We found a quiet spot away from others and let it do its thing. It was a bit spooky to have it sitting a little way away taking photos of us. The photo show you what we could see. Tomorrow, we are taking our friends to camp at Dryandra then to the farm where I grew up. It would be a good place for Vince to try to get his drone going. He hasn’t had much luck with it so far. When the battery dies, it just does a bellyflop to the ground. Our friend’s descends very quietly and gently which is much to be preferred.

It was a weird feeling to have the drone hovering just a few metres away. If it had come closer, I think I might have been running to get behind a tree!

You are having a lot of fun with your German friend. Good luck to Vince, I know he had bad experiences with drones.

I think on the whole we like to live and let live but there are obnoxious people everywhere I guess.

Drones can be very helpful at times.

Vince would like to take photos with it. When we watch modern films, they often seem to make use of drones.

Drones are the up and coming technology for lots of things

I think you're right. They are already being use for more and more tasks.
