I've already put some shots up in the drone discussion forum, but it doesn't seem to get many views so I'm going to share here. My brother and I just got a DJI Mavic 2 Pro. Yesterday was my first real photo trip, hiking up my close to home little mountain, Mt. Pilchuck.
Me (blue dot in center) at the trailhead, typical for this area it's surrounded by trees so very limited views for the earthbound photographer.
Sunrise Pano from the trailhead. Click through to see full size posted on flickr. Excessive flare is a weakness of the lens (I've cloned out some of the ugliest).
Looking back to Pilchuck's summit and the lookout on top (I'm the red dot down left from there).
Looking toward Glacier Pk. Just after I took this I got a high wind warning from the drone and brought it back.
All in all an incredibly fun experience that opens a whole new world of shots I've never seen that has my brain churning with ideas.
