This is 13th century Caerlaverock Castle, a medieval fortress in Scotland that has an unusual triangular design. I photographed it from the ground as well with my Canon R5, and I like the images, but the aerial perspective is much more compelling in my opinion. My DJI Air 3S drone was 161 feet in altitude for this image. I used the medium telephoto lens -- 70mm -- and this allowed me to capture an attractive composition from a distance. The Air 3S drone has two focal length lenses, 24mm and 70mm, while the new DJI Mavic 4 drone has three lenses -- a 166mm lens was added. When that drone is released, I'm expecting to get it for a number of important upgrades. The settings for this image were 1/1000, f/2.8, and 100 ISO.
