Location

This image was taken during the North American Wake Surf Championship. I was live streaming the competition and I took this in between shots.

Time

Mid afternoon

Lighting

Bright sunny day

Equipment

Phantom 4 pro +

Inspiration

It's a unique angle and it was the first time we used a drone for live streaming so it was really a welcome added addition.

Editing

Not much in post, I primarily do wildlife documentaries so am usually limited to the amount of post processing I'm Allowed to do which means I spend alot of time setting up the shot to get it just right.

In my camera bag

ND filters, extra batteries, extra cards, various lenses if I'm using the heavy lift drones.

Feedback

Make sure you are following local regulations, it's important to be both a good drone pilot as well as a good photographer.
