Ottawa from above
Hi guys. I have recently picked up a DJI Mavic Mini. According to Canadian law it is not a 'Drone' or a 'Remotely Piloted Aircaft System'. I am a licensed pilot of my other 'Drone'/'RPAS' systems but this new device is a magical little thing that doesn't require licensing, is smaller than a cell phone, weighs just over half of what a pop can weighs, can not hurt a plane or helicopter, and is completely unrestriced in Canada. It is classified as a toy and it REALLY is just a toy at 249 grams, yet it has a very capable camera. It is made of foam with a plastic shell and the battery pack is about the same weight and size as two AA batteries. I am starting this thread for you guys because I am now able to shoot any project in the city from any angle and I would love to get some requests.

Wow, beautiful shots!
Would love to see more of: -Icon / Dow's Lake Area -Dense OttawaU Campus -CBD Density -Confed Park / Elgin -Rideau Street Canyon Just to name a few... ;) |
Very nice!
Have you got any recent shots of Zibi and Hydro Ottawa work around the ring dam? |
Wow - that Aberdeen Pavilion shot is amazing.
|
How about the SJAM Parkway west of Dominion where they recently diverted the westbound lanes?
Great pics by the way. |
Wow, those are spectacular. That Lansdowne pic is award-worthy. Keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to seeing more.....

Rideau icefalls this winter
Ice-blasting? |
Most folks going for the scenic images. I would like to see aerials of some of the roughest neighbourhoods in Ottawa - such as Richie Street. I know what is on the ground but it would be interesting to see (for me) the general development as an over all view.

Spectacular. Look forward to seeing more!

I realize I put this in the wrong section, if a mod could change it to Ottawa Photos that would be great!
I see the requests and I will get them all soon, with the exception of Parliament close ups. I am happy to take more requests as well so long as they are not within 560 metres of the Peace Tower or directly adjacent to an airport. I can fly the Mini anywhere else in the city legally. Here are new shots of the Island Park Towers and Agora in the Plateau, and a couple from other threads.

Here are two from today : 'Selection Gatineau', a new 11 Story Senior's Residence under construction at 213 Blvd. De Grives in the Plateau. The following shot is 1161 Heron Road.

OK, I have got to get me one of these contraptions.

Gawd damn those are some great shots.
Thanks again Harley. |
Do you have creative control over the camera settings? Or are those artfully-blurred auto lights just a function of the photos being taken in fading ambient light?
Either way: holy hell. Sweet, sweet shots. |
