I get a lot of great comments from photographers around the world. This was taken with Canon 70D with Canon 100-400mm L II lens, f/5.6, 1/3200, ISO 200.

I was out enjoying my new DJI Phantom 4 flying over Nokomis Beach near Sarasota, FL. It was a perfect day to fly. Great sky and little wind. This is the north jetty.
