Drones...

I live near Shawbury and have regular flyovers by helis.

I asked the base commander and they are regularly well under 400ft. Standard Flight radar app won't help but ADSB flight tracker shows low level activity.

I've just wrapped on some fire safety and training videos for Surrey Fire and Rescue, really interesting work! 

Was at their training establishment yesterday and took the Mini 2 although it was all ground filming, always worth popping it in the back of the car...

Can't see any new lotus models amongst the heavyweight vehicles.

They were taken with the Mini 2, I could be 1m away if I wanted! 

[Bibs]

I did that

That is really cool  @Bibs. Such a shame we lost but the boys did well.

Some camera porn. My neighbour bought this home from work yesterday, a Sony Venice which is about £100k's worth of camera including the accessories before you even start on the box of lenses!

Belgravia today inspecting in Embassy central! One of the armed DPG cops watched Harry's Garage and is going to retire soon, his gift to himself is an AMG Emira!!

Makes you wonder about Gatwick doesn't it

Been very busy on the drones recently. On the way back from a job in London last week I stopped by the Blackwall tunnel where there's a very small place for flying legally.

Really liking the f1.2 aperture on the new camera!

Spotted a cold war Soviet sub in the Medway yesterday and had the Mini 2 with me!

Wow, why is it there?!

[Chillidoggy]

I’ve been onboard that sub, maybe 25 years ago.

It was bought by a guy who wanted to turn it into a tourist attraction, serving meals on board and hiring it for parties and so on. The Port of London Authority eventually gave up chasing the owner for the pilotage charges, and for a long time it was moored in Folkestone harbour. It was open to the public, and I paid it a visit, I have some photos of it somewhere.

I cannot be sure but I suspect non-payment of mooring fees might have hastened a move to a mooring in the River Medway, and it’s been there ever since. As with anything like this, there’s probably a restoration society involved somewhere along the line. Thing is, it really needs to be out of the water. Boats are fine until you put them in the water.

Anybody got Rolaids for this poor alligator?  (don't do this)

More work in central London last night, got home at 2am! Was a job for a rapper who is currently number 1 in 17 countries! Here's a quick couple of snaps of London I got while buzzing about!

Pics and vids are not showing up. I’d recommend contacting the bloke who runs the site.

I can see them all and they're lovely.  Have you tried turning it off and on again?
