SUNSET, COVILL PARK

Red Wing Photography Club September meeting was at Covill Park in Red Wing, MN this evening.  Perfect weather – mid 70s.  Hazy skies no doubt from the massive amounts of forest fires out West.

I shot several series of frames from the Mavic Mini drone for panorama and HDR compositions as well as a few single frame images.

The dynamic range on the Mavic Mini is not great; bracketing does the trick to make up for its shortcomings.

Covill Park Bay

Situated on the southwest bank of the Mississippi River, the floodplain forest of Colvill Park is one of the most popular spots in Minnesota to watch wintering bald eagles. In the spring and fall migrating ducks such as mallards, common mergansers, and common goldeneyes can be seen feeding. White-tail deer, mink, and gray squirrels are also common sites. ~#exploremn

There were not many eagles this a.m., but the light, shadows and reflections were wonderful.
