Another boring object, but it's what I got...music makes it better...

Very nice, as usual. Again - settings or it didn't happen!

From GP Studio, out at same reso to YT, no stab
2.7K 60fps Med.
PT, GP color
Reduced speed by 5% for the majority of the video, then down to 50% during the last orbit.

This weekend's efforts, regarding the camera settings, was EV Comp adjustments. It would be nice if this could be set in flight. Either way I found early or late hour flights faired well with either +/- .5 adjustments in EV Comp.

I did letter box this video just to see how it would look and to center out the object vertically in frame, interesting how this alone adds a dramatic tone. Did apply a minimal zoom to edge out the letter box framing.

And finally, the whole video was reversed. When I shot this scene I started out tight to the windmill and as the orbits continued it got larger. Interesting effect and not that the wheel can't spin backwards, but it's not a typical occurrence.
