so ive been flying for about 8 months now and honestly most of my clips have been pretty garbage up until recently. went out to this reservoir near where i live, golden hour, almost no wind which never happens around here. got like 40 minutes of footage and actually a handful of shots im not embarrassed to show people lol

the one im most happy with is this slow pull-back reveal over the water with the treeline reflected in it. kept my ND filters on the whole time which i think finally made a difference, the motion blur actually looks cinematic instead of just blurry if that makes sense. anyway if anyone wants to tear it apart or give feedback id love to hear it, still figuring out my color grading workflow and i think thats where im losing a lot of the quality

color grading is honestly where i spent like 6 months being confused too. what software are you using? because if its premiere the lumetri panel is fine but i switched to resolve and never looked back, the color wheels just feel way more intuitive once you get used to it. also curious what ND you had on for the pullback shot, 8 or 16?

post the clip! dont just describe it haha i wanna see the reflection shot that sounds really nice actually. reservoir near you got a name? might know the spot
