I'm flying the Inspire from down by the resort you see in the valley below. This is when a drone really confers huge advantages. Taking my videos this way sure beats climbing all the way up there...
Once I had maneuvered the drone out on the sunny side of the formations, the color values improved.
There is a community on the Dry Creek Road with the colorful name, 'Lizard Head Estates.' You understand the rather odd name as you approach...
Bell Rock is on the South side of Sedona, where the clouds are most persistent. I could never get really clear sky, so I looked for times when a thinner cloud layer was over the formation. Beggars can't be choosers...
A family with children expressed a lot of interest in the Inspire, so I videoed them as they began their hike up to the base of Bell Rock. http://www.divexprt.com/HDRphotography/Sedona/3BellRckCourtHseButte/BellRckCourtHseButte.html
As with Kachina Woman, it is much easier to fly to the top than to climb up there...
Oh, for some really clear skies! Still, having a blast working on drone-flying skills!
