Thanks! No filters and no processing other than resizing the images. I could tell the sunset was going to be nice 20 minutes before the magic happened.

I like those moments when the lighting is perfect.
I have taken more than a few shots of my daughter while she is dancing. It took a while for me to understand the lighting from stage to seats in an auditorium. After I figured that out, I get pretty good shots when she dances. Every now and then, a gem.
My children and I were following a few ducks through a creek near our house. Up to the point they just didn't think they would shake the humans and flew off further down stream. Fun times.
My son took this with his new drone. It is a freeway interchange in Los Angeles. I don't know why it is so grainy. He said the lack of traffic from the quarantine is phenomenal.

Cool shot. The grainy look may have something to do with the movement of the drone and the shutter speed of the camera combined. When the target or camera is moving, the shutter speed needs to increase for a clearer image. I know a few guys who use drones to capture images for use in future roadway improvement visualizations. Using the existing landscape imaging with surveyed points to tie them into a scaled coordinate system so the new design can be shown integrated with the existing. This is a growing field.

Thanks Will. He is an accomplished drone photographer. I don't know the story, yet, behind the grain, He fills in for a guy that does drone photos on a whale watching boats out of Newport Beach, he is good.

During tuna season last year, I took this shot with my phone, so the quality is not the best (that's my shadow taking the shot).
This is to show how tight our spaces are. My boat is behind my gray Dodge & my buddy's boat is behind his white Dodge. We usually gather a bunch of looky lews when we back in !
This was taken while the boat was moving. We disturbed the bird that is trying to fly away, but he is too full of fish to get off the water. Note all the birds in front of him.
Yes, fishing was great here.
This another buddy's boat. We are running 35 mph in the open ocean & this was, of coarse, taken while running that fast. We were coming home from a great tuna trip.
OK, so I bragged about my son's photo work, BUT I failed to tell you what a bad pilot he is !
After taking this drone shot, he failed to miss the 14KVAC lines over the pond & HIT THEM, sending the drone swimming sinking I should say. I called a friend to come over & get it. The pond is 16 feet deep.
My son now has a new drone !
Grilled something different today. Chicken teriyaki. I prepped the chicken this morning and let it marinade all day in the sauce. After skewering the chicken I boiled the leftover sauce so I could baste while it grilled. My god that was good! Poor focus pic:
