There's one out there of a flight over Conowingo, Sam. A little too shaky for my taste, but it's impressive that you can see an eagle flying at the same height as the drone.

I've seen that one yeah!I'm not too keen on the practice of strapping cams to birds but this is becoming a bigger thing too:http://www.theverge.com/2014/3/5/5475586/a-pelican-with-a-gopro-gives-us-a-beak-at-the-world-belowHard to argue with the results tho, it's VERY cool.I guess if it's not hurting them it's OK, but for every one that is safe and careful how many bozos will there be?

GoPro's "please buy me" display at Gander Mountain has a running loop video.Part of it is video from the backside of a bird.How do you get the camera back?

Send the monkey after it.

At least the monkey didn't try to mate with it.

"And now class...monkey's in the wild..."

DJI is on fire. New Inspire 2 and Hero 4 Pro are rocking incredible new feature upgrades including seriously badass new camera tech.

And I'm finally in. I've ordered a Mavic Pro. They are taking the crown for 'bang for the buck' drones that go anywhere due to small size and easy operation.

The bad news? They are still impossible to get in store. Pick an option (Newegg/Amazon/BestBuy/B&H/ Apple) and wait up to a month for delivery.

I did not take this photo, but did the post processing of it for a family member who wanted to enlarge it as a Christmas gift. It had a lot of noise in it.

We have been discussing taking a trip to Iceland with some friends of ours. He found this video, which I thought was very well done.

Shipped! Just a short trip from Shenzhen China!

Now, that's a picture I like.

I didn't crash my first two flights, I call that a win. So much to learn!
