For me it is great fun to be outdoors. The sea and mountains are kinda like a second home, so my entry is a hike I did to a 750 meter high mountain in western Norway.
The idea cor my film came after the hike, so unfortunately I didn't get as much footage as I would have preferred.
Notice to self: When using the drone, it would have been awesome to make sure the focus was correctly set, so the footage wouldn't be blurry. :)

A great day, a good hike, nice view, and great fun!

Hope you enjoy. Any feedback is appreciated.

Oh my what beautiful country. You really are blessed. The drone footage looked fine to me, I did not think it was to blurry. I think that people can tell by your voice that you truly love your country. Take care, and thank you for all that you do for UWOL, Bob

I loved it! The opening golden focus was so beautiful. Th first drone shot flying towards the mountaintop with the snow covered mountains in the distance was an amazing scene. (I watched it twice before continuing!) You inspired me to get my drone out and film more in the mountains.

Thank you Bob and Phil for the comments!

Phil, the drone gives you a lot of new opportunities. I use it a lot in combination with my regular camera.

Hi Trond.

Hiking is well known in Norway and we have an extensive network of trails across the country.
The pandemic has led to many people vacationing in their home country, and taking advantage of the trails.
It is a beautiful landscape you have filmed and the drone scenes is beautiful.
I understand what you mean by blur, but it's not something I noticed until I read your post.
Maybe you could do something with the sound of the stream, fade it in and out so that it lasts a little bit longer than the clip itself?
I must thank you Trond for the work you put into UWOL, as well as for sharing your film with us.
All the best and stay safe.

Thank you for the feedback, Geir Inge!
Your comment about the sound of the stream, is a good one. Would have been better to do as you describe.
