Bourne and Sagamore Bridges

timlowenwirth.bsky.social @timlowenwirth.bsky.social · Aug 22

My second video from my afternoon along the Cape Cod Canal. On these LAANC approved flights I was checking out the Bourne and Sagamore Bridges. Beautiful afternoon for flying! The DJI Air 3S and Mini 4 Pro held up wonderfully in the strong winds. Enjoy!

This video was made after an afternoon of LAANC approved flights along the Cape Cod Canal. In this video, we see at the mouth of the canal, the historical Cape Cod Railroad Bridge and The Massachusetts Maritime Academy and their training vessel, The Patriot State.

The Cape Cod Railroad Bridge is a magnificent place to fly. Had some fun with my @djiglobal.bsky.social Avata 2. Added the sound FX in post using iMovie. #CapeCodRailroadBridge #CapeCodCanal #DroneVideography #DJI #DJIAvata2 #FPVDJI

On our way to #Rome, driving through #Todi, I couldn't believe all the fields of sunflowers. Had to stop a couple times & launch my @djiglobal.bsky.social Air 3S and grab some video. I couldn't believe how bright & yellow the whole landscape was.

This video was made from a series of flights during a recent trip. This place was magnificent to see from the air. The winds were high, but the @dji Air 3S and @djiglobal Avata 2 held help remarkably.

San Gimignano and Monteriggioni looking beautiful! My first photos with my new @dji @djiglobal Air 3S. The camera on this drone is a freaking beast.

Put Your Hands Up For Detroit

Bell Works in Holmdel, NJ. This facility is used for the exterior shots in the Apple TV show, Severance. Very cool campus, definitely going back soon for a more in-depth aerial shoot.
I used my @djiglobal.bsky.social Mini 4 Pro with a ND16 filter. #DronePhotography #HolmdelNJ #BellWorks #Severance

A few aerials of the soon to be demolished (by controlled detonation) Sheraton in Mahwah, NJ.
I’m hoping that I can film the demolition too.
In the meantime, here is a small sampling of the shots I got today.

Just in NIH grants, It looks like beautiful Iowa City, home of the U of Iowa, will lose $71m in funding. That's almost $1k per resident. And that's before all the other cuts to SSA, FDA, etc.

Anyone in Iowa City that can offer more insight?

Soooooo close to a perfect 10, but I’ll gladly take a 9.9 CGC for my copy of Batman Damned #1, signed by the masters Lee Bermejo and Brian Azzarello.

Can you all just admit that the GOP never gave a fuck about veterans?

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

That press conference was the most disgraceful act of betrayal I’ve ever seen.

This historical ship, The SS United States, finally departed Philadelphia, on its way to becoming a coral reef. I, unfortunately had to work, but I was lucky to video and photograph this great ship last summer. Check out the video I shot back in August. #SSUnitedStates

The historic, aging ocean liner that a Florida county plans to turn into the world’s largest artificial reef has departed from south Philadelphia’s Delaware River waterfront.
