Artistic/Abstract, Until You Look Close

Today’s photo is a seldom, if ever, seen view of tree shadows on a frozen Wapsipinicon River.

I put the drone in the air even though it was cold and windy to get some flight time. If I don’t fly (practice) regularly, then when I need to do something intentional I may struggle. Like using my regular camera, I want adjustments to be second nature - whether they are the camera operation or flight skills. When I saw the interesting long shadows during my flight I had to record them.

On a different note… This morning I photographed this turkey vulture that should have left the area weeks ago. I wonder why it is still here.
