I am only doing test flights from now on

[TimMc]

My drone got a battery replacement and out of way too much caution I made the first flight in my training/safe park area. Then the sun and sky turned magical

and the third party battery worked just fine after DJI threw a hissy fit and downloaded new system software.

Neat stuff.

I like the view and the sky palette in the first image - interesting venue. I might be inclined to grab the stamp tool for the green lens flare in the lower left if this were my shot.

Really like the first image. In addition to Alan's suggestion, I'd also suggest cropping some from the left to lose the partial structure.

I am glad to see you got it flying okay Tim! That's good news. Is that a local park by your house?

Tim, the first one is great.

With drones I find myself using ND filters a lot; unlike photos taken on the ground, most time I point the lens downwards.

12 miles west of us. But the easiest park for no drone regulations and enough clear space to fly enjoyably.

Nice shots. Drones aren't allowed in the locations I frequent otherwise I'd have one.
This may be off topic but DJI throwing a fit reminds me of a news story I heard this past week that DJI is providing tracking information to Russia on Ukraine's drones.
