Urban Reflections - Manchester City Centre (Easter Trilogy 1.5) - DJI MINI3 Pro 4K - April 2024

This is the second version of this video, I had some niggles with the wind bounce and a couple of distracting street objects in the original edit (1), so it has been changed slightly, with a little extra footage added and the pieces of wind bounce largely removed... It was featured on the Drone Show Live on the Premier Show on the 15th My 2024...
An early Easter Bank Holiday morning and a sunny, if windy day, made for a great opportunity to try and capture some of the new buildings in Manchester City Centre - and to perhaps capture some of the architecture and reflections...
Flying the MINI3 Pro allowed us to fly close to buildings and people, and with 2 of us there Lee was able to act as a spotter for me, allowing me to concentrate on capturing the footage...

[@starshipwonaprize-dronevideos]

Bloody amazing Suzanne - I doubt I could ever be as brave and get results like this!

[@albiondrones]

Thanks Paul... It was an opportunity that had to e taken, although the wind was problematic, I had to bin some shots and cut others short due to being blown around... Hence the re-edit and use of other footage.. I am happy with this one :)

Brilliant flight great piloting. Have to say your video really shows town in a great way. Thanks for doing and posting.

[@albiondrones]

Thank you, its a great looking city, and we had a good morning flying..

[@DavidLorenzoFlorida]

*Excellent movements in this video. **0:52** is my favorite. Ascending while using the gimble above zero degrees. I can only recall one other video (and I watch a lot of videos for ideas) doing this movement. That is a feature I plan on using now that I have the Mini 4 pro. The only city near me that has that magnitude of urban landscape is Miami. Well flown and good use of elevation in this scenario. Most drone pilots just skirt around the skyline and call it a day. Nice work. 👍*

[@albiondrones]

Thank you, David, that move, and the opposite move at the end, plus the similar move at the warehouse - where I follow the line of the building as it ascends - were spur-of-the-moment moves, and the first one I flew was the final one, descending while gimballing up - and I came very close to putting the drone into the river with that move... This is one of the 2 submissions I have put into the Southern California Drone Show, fingers are crossed they decide to use it...

Great mood set with the music!

[@albiondrones]

Thank you...

[@lunopark500]

So beautiful flight mate. It was interesting to watch. Thank you 🔝🔝

[@albiondrones]

Thank you kindly... Appreciated :)

[@DavidLorenzoFlorida]

*Yes, I remember this one too. I liked all the low altitude flights in the city. It inspired me to work to do the same. I have been capturing low-altitude footage at "Palm Beach, Florida". It is the home of the rich and some famous. This one is over 3 minutes as well. So probably why it was rejected.*

[@albiondrones]

Thanks David... Glad it inspired you... If it was that reason, then its my own silly fault... Ah well live and learn..

[@ladyintheskyuk]

This is wonderful Suzanne. Fabulous video ❤

Cracking video. ❤

[@albiondrones]

Thank you...

[@DroneShowLive]

Awesome work Suzanne love this from start to finish and seeing you and Lee in the footage is amazing as I love seeing the drone pilots in their videos ❤❤❤❤

[@albiondrones]

Thanks so much Tony, appreciate the sentiments and having the footage on the show... Still need to improve more in order to get a VOTW though :)

[@DroneShowLive]

@@albiondrones I love every single thing about this footage it’s outstanding talent and I’m just glad I don’t have to choose COTW/VOTW as I’d pick every single video on the show to be VOTW/COTW 💚💚💚💚☘️

[@albiondrones]

@@DroneShowLive thanks Tony...

[@johnnymac26]

Im sure i commented on this but hey...brilliant those reflections are stunning

[@albiondrones]

Thanks... this may be the latest edit, removing a couple of wind-induced bobbing bits that were annoying me..

[@bruceclarkephotography]

Smooth and slick Suzanne. Nicely edited.

[@albiondrones]

Thank you kindly, appreciate the watch and comment, glad it was enjoyed...

[@DocColVideo]

Everything about this video is spot on Suzanne. Flying, angles, subjects and edit are Pro+ standard. You are in the wrong business IMO! 😂❤

[@albiondrones]
