Today I was out to fly my DJI Mini 4 Pro one more time. I've been looking to get pictures of the Giesel Library for a long time. This is an iconic building located in the center of the University of California San Diego campus. Originally this building was just called Central Library, it was build in 1970 and designed by William Pereira, then renamed as Geisel Library in 1995. One of the interesting things there is the snake path, located in the east side of the building, can you find it on the pictures?
When I have a spot I want to photograph, I usually like to fly out of a parking lot near by, it's just easier to be able to fly right out of your car. I drove around the library, and since it's right in the middle of campus, there are not any open parking lots, only parking buildings. The only very few open parking lots were not available to the public, they were restricted. So I had to drive a little further out. I found a big parking lot for a hospital, and I just had to fly a few hundred meters to reach the library. The day was a bit windy, and because of the distance and obstacles, I couldn't get the drone lower without loosing signal, any lower then what you can see in the pictures. I think it would be probably interesting to get lower angles as the building has so many features. One of these days I will just walk there and take some pictures from the ground.

Hoje eu saí para voar com meu DJI Mini 4 Pro mais uma vez. Há muito tempo venho tentando tirar fotos da Giesel Library (Biblioteca). Esse é um edifício icônico localizado no centro do campus da Universidade da Califórnia em San Diego. Originalmente, esse prédio era chamado apenas de Biblioteca Central, foi construído em 1970 e projetado por William Pereira, depois renomeado como Geisel Library em 1995. Uma das coisas interessantes é o caminho da cobra, localizado no lado leste do edifício. Você consegue encontrá-lo nas fotos?
Quando tenho um local que quero fotografar, geralmente gosto de voar de um estacionamento próximo, pois é mais fácil poder voar diretamente do meu carro. Dei uma volta pela biblioteca e, como ela fica bem no meio do campus, não há estacionamentos abertos, apenas prédios de estacionamento. Os poucos estacionamentos abertos não estavam disponíveis para o público, eram restritos. Por isso, tive de dirigir um pouco mais pra longe. Encontrei um grande estacionamento de um hospital mas precisei voar algumas centenas de metros para chegar à biblioteca. O dia estava com um pouco de vento e, devido à distância e aos obstáculos, não consegui descer mais o drone sem perder o sinal do que o que vocês podem ver nas fotos. Acho que seria interessante obter ângulos mais baixos, pois o prédio tem muitos caracteristicas legais. Um dia desses, vou caminhar até lá e tirar algumas fotos do chão.
What a cool building. Love the way it's centered with the park area around it. Looks like would be perfect place to play with some of those DJI Master shots, or whatever they call them now.
I haven't tried that yet, and didn't think about it yesterday. Maybe next time I'll give it a try!
It has truly satisfying geometries, seen from above it is impressive!

Bzzzrrr, que linda biblioteca! O caminho de sapos é inovador, sim! Eu adorei as fotos e entendi o desafio de encontrar um lugar para decolar o drone. Espero que você consiga ir para lá e tirar mais fotos em breve!
