Lockdown Day 8 - Sunrise over our Estate

Whereas I would normally drive out to a location if I was intending to capture a sunrise, now it is a question of walking out.  It's more of a challenge; you have to  try and work out if it is going to be worthwhile a good half an hour before sunrise.

Today, I tried something different.  It takes about 5 minutes to walk out of the estate to the north, along a permissive path towards the local nature reserve.  I took the drone and set it up to take a panoramic shot from about 80 metres above ground level. I was quite pleased with the result.  It's a bit noisy as it had to cope with a wide range of exposures between the sky frames and the ground.  It takes 18 images in three rows of six.  I've cropped it slightly as this results in a 180 degree sweep and the perspective is a little wierd if you include the whole of the capture.

I think this also demonstrates how flat the land is around here.  I took a walk later in the day and most of the route can be seen in this image, across the open fields beyond the estate.  I have an impression that the social distancing is working well in our area, with very few signs of people ignoring the advice.  Hopefully it will have the desired effect.
