Falls of Bruar by drone
The Falls of Bruar are a series of waterfalls on the Bruar Water in Scotland, about 8 miles (13 kilometres) from Pitlochry in the council area of Perth and Kinross. They have been a tourist attraction since the 18th century and were immortalized in a poem by Robert Burns, The Humble Petition of Bruar Water to the Noble Duke of Atholl, supposedly from the river itself entreating the Duke to plant some trees in the then barren landscape.
"Would then my noble master please
To grant my highest wishes,
He'll shade my banks wi' tow'ring trees,
And bonnie spreading bushes."
The falls were probably formed some time in the last 10,000 years, after the retreat of the glaciers at the end of the last ice age. The waters slowly cut through the rock which had been pushed up by the geological forces which formed the Scottish Highlands some 500 million years ago. The layering of the rocks means that the water has cut a meandering path through the softer rock and left the harder rock untouched. This has led to the creation of deep pools, outcrops and, in one place, a natural arch. The falls consist of two large falls and a number of smaller drops. The water is often coloured brown from the peat through which it flows.
Nowadays, the A9 Perth to Inverness road passes near the foot of the falls in Glen Garry, and there is a shopping centre and car park from where visitors may access the falls. A circular footpath leads up to the Lower Bridge, close to the natural arch, and continues on to the Upper Bridge, about 1⁄2 mile (800 metres) from the car park, before returning down the opposite bank.
The total drop of the falls is about 60 metres. The narrowness of the gorge means that the falls are most impressive after heavy rain, but since the construction of a hydroelectric power scheme in the late 1940s, water is extracted farther up the river and the falls no longer reach the volumes they once did.

      Brave men, especially as they were targeted in WWI by the enemy to reduce British moral. This lead to the War Office banning pipers in the front line in WWII, but do a google search for "Mad William Millin". On D-Day Lord Lovet asked Private Millin to pipe the soldiers ashore at Sword Beach saying of the law "Ah, but that's the English War Office. You and I are both Scottish, and that doesn't apply." Millin said that he later spoke to captured German snipers who told him they didn't shoot at him because they thought he had gone mad.

    Hi HFS. I found this tutorial over six months ago and then I lost track of it. I have attempted to do this technique using my Mavic three in November, and I found one major flaw and I don’t know if it’s the same with the Mavic 3 compared to the drone you were using. On the Mavic 3 the Actual dimensions of the Raw file are slightly different than the dimensions of the JPEG file. It’s not just that one is slightly bigger or smaller. The actual proportions are slightly different. Enough so that when I tried to blend the two images, they weren’t aligned properly and of course, wherever things are lighter edges of the area where the cars are moving and light is bleeding up into the sides of the road or a bridge or whatever online incorrectly. What I may not have done was collapse on the JPEG‘s first, and then add the Raw file and have Photoshop attempt to align it. But it still seems like if the proportions of the original image are different, I would still have trouble. I’ll have to go back and re- work that image again and see if it changed anything. I wanted to use the DNG for the master overall image. But when you turn off the Lighten mode layer to reveal the DNG layer, the two images don't match up- even after Aligning all the layers. The DNG layer has a slightly different shape. I've been beating my head on this for a couple of days because I couldn't get alignment of all my layers, and just now figured out that the DNGs out of camera are 5272 x 3948 pixels and the JPGs - even on the same image - are 5280 x 3956 pixels. WTF...????

    • @highflyingscotland
      @highflyingscotland 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi @jeffellis6544, sorry if the instructions caused any confusion or issues. This was made a few years ago with a Mini 2, which I've now sold so I can't even test with anymore. I've not tried doing any lightpainting lately with either of my other drones (Mini 4 pro & Air 2S). I've tried taking a photo with the Mini 4 Pro and can align DNG's and JPG's out of it without any issue, Photoshop shows both the DNG and JPG as 4032 x 3024 for this one. When I get a chance I'll break out the Air 2S and try that as well and let you know how I get on.
