I enjoyed your description and photos. Drones certainly expand your photographic possibilities. Nat Geo had a marvelous article on drone images from 2020. I’m imagining all types of interesting places where you can photograph now!

I am thinking of this in the context of my relocation to Europe where I will be more likely to travel by car and therefore be able to carry a drone. Just thinking of…

Isn’t that the truth! So many things these days we can say the same thing about!

It’s difficult to do in the moment, but can you imagine what you would have said if someone told you 50 years ago that autonomous drones would exist in the future and that civilians could own them?

They do give you opportunities for unique images, and they are fun to fly in their own right. Note that I can’t speak to rules outside the United States, and not to be discouraging, but be sure to understand whatever legal ramifications are attached to flying drones in your country.
In the United States, for example, there are two sets of rules, recreational and commercial. Pilots here end up choosing one or the other for their flights and have slightly different legal requirements to meet depending upon that choice.
