Downtown Albuquerque like you have never seen before
Part of my drone photography work for WSI Web Enhancers took me to downtown Albuquerque at sunset to get beautiful, attention grabbing drone imagery for WSI to in turn wow their own client with. Mother Nature greatly cooperated with perfect clouds and warm setting sunlight to paint the view of downtown ABQ with, and for me to send up my DJI Mavic 2 Pro drone up to capture. I was west of the downtown skyline so I could provide both a more unique view of the city (most photos show it from the east) and also to have the Sandia Mountains serve as the backdrop. I am very excited to offer 360 panorama drone photos on Jason Collin Photography for my clients!
While on a 360 panorama drone photography shoot for WSI Web Enhancers, I was very close to a baseball field, Tingley Field for those that know Albuquerque, New Mexico. In making the 360 panorama photo, the drone captures 26 photos. The baseball field was right below the drone, and captured these unique views. I found the angles the fencing made to be interesting mixed with the late evening light casting shadows. Then perhaps the most interesting visual feature are the dark rings (crop circles?) seen in two of the shots What made those? If you know, or even want to guess, let me know in the comments below!
Small, but beautiful, Monte Verde Lake in Angel Fire, New Mexico greets you as you arrive from the south. Surrounded by a walking path that points you to various mountain views and tall timber, it is a small haven for those looking for a Nature escape. I share all forms of media of Monte Verde Lake: 4K drone video, 360 drone panorama photo, high resolution mirrorless still photos, and aerial drone photos. Which is your favorite media of the lake?
Out on a drone photography assignment for local Albuquerque, New Mexico business WSI Web Enhancers, I launched my drone from the top of a parking garage in downtown, set the photo mode to panorama sphere, and the above is the result. As a certified drone pilot for over 2 years, I regularly share drone content on Jason Collin Photography, but this is the first time to feature a 360 panorama photo! The drone did all the shooting itself. I flew it into position, and let the drone do its thing. The big challenge for me was, how to share this 360 panorama image on my site. I did a lot of research into this and found no clear process actually. After a while I came to find that I need to upload the huge panorama image the drone stitched together for me, to a website that will host the image and format it. Basically it’s like putting video on YouTube.
I was actually out scouting a location for a client (WSI Web Enhancers) for making a panoramicaerial drone photo, when with the last remaining battery life, I decided to give the new Hyperlapse mode a try. This very short 5 seconds of video took the drone over 4 minutes to make as every 2 seconds it took a photo, in total over 100 photos make up this 5 second clip! I will soon be going out making more purposeful (and longer) Hyperlapse videos of Albuqureque.
Conchas Lake visits require bringing your own supplies
In an area dozens of miles from any gas station, grocery store, or restaurant, Conchas Lake in New Mexico is about as remote of a place you will find that has an active community living around it. This makes it a unique lake community unlike the others I have featured on Jason Collin Photography before in Navajo Dam Lake and Elephant Butte Lake. This lake also has a dam that you can drive along the top of, which is a pretty cool experience. Enjoy the drone views of the lake and dam in this series of drone aerial photos and drone video.
Tramway Albuquerque New Mexico luxury real estate drone photos
As a certified drone pilot in Albuquerque, New Mexico, I regularly photograph luxury real estate for my clients, like Fred & Sandra Creek of ABQhomes to help sell their properties faster and to be able to compete in the modern real estate market. Here at Jason Collin Photography, I have been at the leading edge of drone aerial photography and video since 2017. What drone aerial photos allowed me to do for this property was show its amazing neighborhood with a large park right next door as well as its proximity to the Sandia Mountains. The lot also has mature landscaping that would block views of the home from the ground, but from the air the drone shows the majesty of the tall trees surrounding the house.
