This week was insane. You know those weeks where it feels like the universe decided, "Hey, let’s see how much we can throw at this guy before he taps out!" Yup, that kind of week. Work was on fire, not the good kind. Meetings back-to-back, deadlines breathing down my neck, and, oh yeah, just to make it fun, the weather was a total dumpster fire too—rainy, gray, and depressing. I couldn't even get out for my usual walks to clear my head.
But today, the forecast promised a tiny break from the chaos—a bit of sunshine. The kind of morning where you know the light is gonna be perfect if you’re up early enough. And man, after a week of being chained to a screen, I needed that fresh air.
So I said, screw it. I grabbed my camera, strapped up the DJI Mini 3 Pro, and went for a walk. No real plan, just the need to shake off the stress and feel the outdoors again. I’ve learned that sometimes, when life is beating you down, the best thing you can do is just show up.
And damn, am I glad I did.
I got out there just before the sun fully broke through the fog, and the entire scene looked like something straight out of a dream. I’m talking sunbeams slicing through mist, a golden horizon with wind turbines barely visible through the haze—it was like nature was putting on a show just for me. You ever have one of those moments where everything just feels... right? Yeah, that was it.
So, up went the drone, and boom! The shots practically took themselves. The light was perfect, the fog was hugging the ground, and there was this quiet stillness all around. The kind of moment you don’t capture unless you’re there, unless you show up.
I ended up with a handful of absolute stunners (yup, humble brag time). Each one felt like a little reward for getting out there, for dragging myself out of the house after an exhausting week. Sometimes, the universe throws you a bone when you least expect it.
Moral of the story? Whether it’s walking, shooting photos, or just showing up to life, it’s not about perfection. It’s about persistence. I could have easily stayed home, too tired and too busy to bother, but I didn’t. I went out, and I was rewarded with moments of pure beauty.
And that’s life, man. Sometimes you just have to show up. Because the best shots? The ones that stick with you? They’re not planned. They’re captured when you’re there, in the moment, with no expectations.
Stay persistent, stay present, and always bring your gear!

Thank you very much! :-)
Yeah, it was very tempting to just admit to the fatigue and the weather and the being too busy and all that, but in the end, body, mind and photocatalog benefited from going for a walk anyway ;-)

Nice shots! I have a quad that I want to turn into a cinewhoop to do some nice shots. But we'll see. I have to do a frame swap for one of my 3.5 inch quads because I broke one of the arms, lol. That freestyle life, lol. But yes, I am finally flying, well sort of... My 2 main quads are both on the work bench waiting for parts, lol. The other 2 I have now, I don't have the correct controller for... I am still considering a DJI mini though for stuff like this...
Yeah, went to a drone festival a couple of weeks ago with a hand-me-down drone that needed basically a full rebuild aside from motors and frame, lol. Then left the festival with 4 quads, lol. Pretty much made out like a bandit, lol. The signature racer I won, but the others were all given to me by members of the community to help me get started, lol. The FPV drone community is so awesome, lol.
Nice dude!!!! I must admit, I’ve never even flown an FPV drone :-) But sometimes am considering buying the DJI Avata to get started into that as well :-)
The thing is, I already have waaaay too many hobbies, and with FPV, I would add another I’m afraid :-D
Hope you get your parts soon!

I understand you, I understand... Today or tomorrow I’ll do the same thing, grab my drone and go somewhere, and that will be it. Lately, this has been my escape valve to get away from weekly stress. Oh, before I forget, these photos are impressive; the mist gives a feeling that you’re above the clouds. They turned out great!
