    Includes: Muito obrigado pelo trabalho feito, principalmente considerando as difíceis condições do mar. Para a próxima vez, gostaria de sugerir alguns ajustes:

    O barco precisa estar a 100 metros mais próximo da costa. Não foi possível no dia devido ao mar.

    O drone precisa captar a reflexão das cores na água, então a posição deve ser um pouco mais alta do que a que aparece na foto em anexo e um pouco mais atrás.

    Um ângulo ligeiramente de lado parece ser o melhor, pois mostra bem o ângulo e faz o barco parecer maior.

    A foto da "Morning Star" que enviei é um bom exemplo, embora seja um barco mais alto, o que é diferente. Mas vemos os seguintes pontos:

    Lindas falésias e praia.

    O barco e a reflexão das cores na água.

    A posição do drone e o ângulo do barco funcionaram bem.

    O céu não está perfeito, mas isso pode ser ajustado facilmente.
