Western Railroad Discussion > Fooling Around With Drones at Midnight

Another from last night out at Gorge (Donner).

Well, mine is actually the way I shot it- I rolled the camera down, and kept shooting, as the train approached and passed directly under the drone.

Anyone report Martians landing at Gorge?  An interesting night angle.

Uhhhhhh.....?

It does bait the UFO crowd at night- it has flashing lights on the rear (the flash sequence & colors confirm that it has a clear control signal, GPS lock, etc). Also it has VERY bright lights for landing at night that can be toggled on & off. I leave them on so I can spot the thing in the night sky.

I think I once saw something like this around a campfire, but then...

Steve,
Again you answered my earlier questions about spotting the drone up there on the darkness.
Oh! Yeah! Even greater post, loving it and surprised someone rotated the image you caught.
It was obvious, at least to me, you shot what you saw. It didn't make me nausious at all.
Super shots!
Go
 

Kinda hard to insist which way is up when the image is shot straight down. Cool pic. 

I chose the vertical not only because that's how I shot it but because it seems a better composition to me.
