Minor October update

Minor October update

Some thoughts and photos from the past month

October 18, 2024personal journal2 min read

I’ve decited to post small update from last couple of weeks. Not much has changed, I’ve been focused on my work and a little bit of running. Beside that, I’ve got few ocassions to fly my drone and take some photos. I’ll share them below.

But first…

Getting back to running

In my last update, I mentioned that I was getting back to more regular running. It’s been going all right, so far I managed to run 1-2 times a week on a regular basis. Not a huge amount, but it’s a start.

I’ve been doing 5k runs in the nearby park. I definitely feel the difference in my level of fitness compared to a few months ago, but still have a long way to go.

My goal is still just to keep it going, not to push myself too hard and avoid injuries. I’ll be thinking about getting on full training plan from the next year onwards.

Videography and photography

It’s maybe a big name slapped on my small hobby, but I’ve been enjoying flying my drone on few ocassions. I am fascinated by this new perspectives.

I desperately want to get better at it, but it’s a slow process. Every time I fly, I learn something new or discover some quirks.

Sunset is definitely my favourite time to fly, the light is just magical. The moment when you can raise the drone high enough to reveal the whole lanscape, with the sun just above the horizon, is just breathtaking.

Still learning how to edit the videos, it feels like a whole new world. But I’m enjoying the process and I’m looking forward for more opportunities to fly and film.

Here is my latest one:

That’s all from my updates this time! Thanks for reading and until next time!
