So, there I was, tasked with picking up my daughter from her boyfriend’s place—because apparently, Uber Dad is a thing now. Naturally, I got there a little early, because who wants to be that parent who shows up late and steals away those precious last moments of young love? Not me, that's for sure.
Instead of sitting in the car, scrolling through my phone and pretending to be interested in whatever social media disaster was trending that day, I decided to take a quick detour to the village center. I had my DJI Mini 3 Pro with me (because what kind of drone enthusiast leaves home without it?), and I figured I’d use the time to capture some aerial shots.
And let me tell you, the village was looking picture-perfect that day. The sky was a brilliant blue with just the right amount of fluffy white clouds, and the sun was casting that golden hour glow across the rooftops and fields. I launched the drone and, within minutes, was greeted with stunning views that made the whole dad-chauffeur gig feel worth it.
From up high, the village unfolded like a classic European postcard. The red-tiled rooftops, the orderly rows of houses, and the wind turbines in the distance all lined up in perfect harmony. I even got some cool shots of the church tower, which looked absolutely majestic against the backdrop of the sprawling countryside.
So, the next time you find yourself with a few extra minutes on your hands, don’t waste them. Grab your drone and see what new perspective you can capture. And if that sounds like a thinly veiled excuse to sneak in some extra flight time, well, you’re absolutely right.
Just saying, there’s always a good reason to launch the drone. Even if it’s just to kill time before another dad duty.
