so ive been flying for like 8 months now and honestly most of my videos have been garbage lol. shaky, bad exposure, just... not good. but yesterday went out to this reservoir about 40 mins from my place right at golden hour and something just clicked. remembered to slow my gimbal pitch speed way down and actually took my time with the movements instead of just jerking the sticks around.

uploaded it to youtube if anyone wants to check it out, link in my profile. not trying to say its amazing or anything but for me its a big step up. curious what people think, especially about the color grade i did in resolve — went for something kinda muted and filmy but idk if i overdid the shadows

watched it, the pull-back reveal over the water at like 0:42 was genuinely nice. you could feel the patience in it. the color grade is fine but yeah the shadows are maybe a touch heavy in the middle section, the trees just go kinda muddy. try lifting your blacks just slightly and see if that opens it up. overall though real improvement from what you posted a few months back

golden hour at a reservoir sounds amazing, im jealous. what drone are you on? ive been trying to get smoother gimbal movement too and cant figure out if its a settings thing or just practice
