The first month of the year has come and already gone by. It seems, time is passing this year as fast as it had during the last year.
The beginning of the year saw us as a family in Hawaii. (See At Captain Cooks Again and Happily back in Hawaii for details from that trip.) We made it home and have since started work (or finished the vacation in Sydney's case.) The regular rhythm has is back.
Thomas has been using his stabilized drone, a DJI Air Mini 2 and took it along as he waited for Sydney to get out of her karate training. This gave him plenty of time to shoot videos. Some of them are reflected below.
This flick of the Oakleigh Pioneer Memorial Park is interesting for two reasons. First, the audio is entirely computer generated using artificial intelligence algorithms. Thomas merely modified the sound a little but not the melody. Secondly the movie shows the real benefit of video stabilization; it allows flying the drone in windy environments while generating smooth, cinematic pictures.
Of course we did not only create videos but also shot some pictures.
Let's see what February brings.
