Flying high - above the fog, beyond the ordinary

in Photography Lovers25 days ago (edited)

You know that feeling when you open your eyes, peek outside, and see a blanket of fog hugging everything in sight? That’s my signal to grab my drone and GO! I’m not talking about jumping into a plane or anything (I wish!), just my handy little drone that lets me see the world from above. Because up there, beyond the fog, that’s where the magic happens. And when you’re freezing outside at the crack of dawn, hands shaking not just from excitement but because it’s COLD, you know it’s going to be worth it. The fog waits for no one, and sometimes it disappears in the blink of an eye. No one wants to miss that shot!

Every time I fly ( I’m still learning!), there’s this thrill, like, what surprise is waiting up there today? I’m still a bit amazed by how quickly the view changes as you go higher and suddenly you’re above the clouds. Well, above the fog...or are they clouds? Let’s settle that debate right here, shall we? Apparently, fog is just a low-flying cloud that happens below 15 meters! Above that, it’s called a cloud. Thank you, Google, for helping me sound a bit smarter. 😊

When my drone takes off, I’m like a kid in a candy shop. I’m no pro, and let’s be honest, my editing skills could use a boost, but who cares? The pure joy of capturing these scenes makes up for any rookie status I might have. The photos I’ve managed to take over the years are crazy, some of them have this eerie but stunning quality, as if the fog itself was just waiting for me. I’ve gathered some of my favorite shots here, and I’m so excited to share them with you!

Honestly, it’s hard to describe the beauty you see when you’re above the fog. It’s like a whole new perspective on the world. Imagine looking down and seeing soft waves of mist rolling across the trees, with maybe just a little break here and there where the land peeks through. It’s peaceful, surreal, and worth every shiver and numb finger.

Flying a drone is like stepping into a secret world that you can’t see with your own eyes, at least, not from the ground. It’s almost like a little taste of what it’d be like to soar like a bird. And I think that’s my favorite part of it all... this feeling of freedom and the thrill of capturing something truly unique. It doesn’t matter that I’m not perfect at it or that I still sometimes get mixed up about fog versus cloud. What matters is that moment when I look at the footage, and it’s pure magic.

So here’s to waking up to foggy mornings, grabbing my drone, and chasing those clouds (or fog…or whatever you want to call it) for as long as they’ll hang around. I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I enjoyed capturing them!

The images are amazing, no matter if it's fog or cloud, they all look great to me.

Thank you, girl ❤️ Oh, you know, my friends and I were debating the difference, and after half an hour, I was like, forget it! We live in a modern world, we can just use google 😂 Sometimes it's funny debating simple stuff because you either don’t know the difference or were never interested in it 😂. Hey, I'm still the girl who mixes up left and right… when someone tells me to go left, I end up going right 😂. My husband goes crazy sometimes 😂Apparently, for Christmas, I’m getting a tattoo from my husband and friends on my hand with 'left' and 'right' signs 😂 because, simple stuff are not so simple sometimes 😂

😆 you know I always have to stop and think which is right and which is left I don't do it automatic either. I always think about which hand I write with and I already place myself on the right.
Good idea about the tattoos.

I’m also doing that to figure out which hand I’m writing with, but when I say it out loud, by the time 10 or 20 seconds pass, we’ve already missed our turn! 😂 So yeah, according to my husband and friends, a tattoo is the last resort. 😂

😂😂😂

We live close to a river, so there is thick fog all autumn. We don't get to see the sun for a couple of months. It's rather depressing, but there is beauty in everything and that's exactly what you showed with your photos. Maybe it's time for me to get a drone, so that I can enjoy autumn a bit more 😂

Oh, but living near the river and having fog for so long is pretty cool too! :) Of course, after a few years, I’d probably want a change, like being able to see the trees! 😂 Just a heads up...if you buy a drone, you’re hooked! 😂

Wow, it's incredibly beautiful.

Thank u ☺️
