Many years ago I saw these images and smiled…..many years before I ever heard of drones . so what’s wrong?

Something that drone pilots should get quickly but most folks won’t see it

if you don’t see it

your perspective is moving so if you take images from a sequence the perspective cannot line up. Because your perspective is always changing or moving.

Can only line up if you are not moving or the subject is not moving or turning over time.

They say they stitched images from the video together. Well that’s simply impossible. Anyway drone photographers can have a good laugh.

For the tech available at the time, the imagery is remarkable. You got to wonder how long it took them to orient and then stitch the imagery together. As well, realize it took another 15 years to release to the general public, classified military secret type of stuff....

I think they could have used a higher ND filter...
