The beauty of light. The graceful flight. The creative movement, balancing the predictable with the change-up. The coverage of the location. The tension of dramatic proximity with the release into cruise - keeping the camera from becoming self-aware and distracting. The self-portrait with contextual study of family. The music. Another cinematic meditation.

@@TheTomJon You deserve high compliment. Not to lay it on too thick, Tom, but it is all the more remarkable that you told a story in one pack. You posses a singular vision that has me shaking my head in wonder. After all, it’s just you and the sun, with a rusty bridge, some water, and a bunch of rocks and mud.

There’s so much that can be said about this film… so I’ll add a bit more. The impression I get from this flight, and much of what you are showing in others, is that we are getting the perspective of the bird, the animal, born with the freedom of the skies. If I was a bird, how would I fly? How would I explore? How would I play? While I appreciate the many talented expert cine pilots exciting us with daring proximity and diving - which you also do (and perhaps live for) - the type of work you are doing here is where we find ourselves confronting art. A bit about the music. Your editing work with music is on a level with say, a wine pairing master. In this piece, the music selected is perfectly matched with the relentless exalting energy of the flight, and perhaps also reflects the building excitement I can imagine you enjoying as you realize mid-flight that you are recording something remarkable. When you early on choose to veer away, we know the straight flight through the trestle will eventually come. And so… anticipation. When we finally shoot through, the music has reached a climactic pitch, and in the height of serendipity, evokes the sound of a speeding train. A perfectly flown pack, and a perfect soundtrack. Bravo!

Thank you a million once again 😀 I'm def still trying to figure out a style and I feel this is my best "one pack" flight to date. As for the music; got lucky finding the song that fit so perfectly. I tend to start the video and a potential song at the same time... and keep trying til I find one that fits. Can take a loooong time sometimes lol but man this one worked out!

On one of the loops I saw the glint of a fishing line that had been left behind hang there and had a mild heart attack...

@@TheTomJon by the way I love Quebec- spent a winter there working with your SF when I was a Marine, it took 45 minutes through your stunning countryside and woodland on immense skidoo’s we’d been trained on over 3 days- it was fkn MENTAL, the training went like this “you see snow berms either side of roads - pick a good spot & hit it about 3 quarter throttle & stay stood up” the dude then proceeded to clear a two lane road like evil ka fkn Neville & waved to us to do the same! 😱😬😅 it was like that for everything & straight up if you didn’t crack it 1st time you got to go home! the pay off was after the 3 days you just signed for whatever skidoo or truck you wanted or needed - ok we had ONE truck we absolutely needed and the other 8 blokes were on the best skidoo’s & wearing the latest in military heated bear suits, we were literally living the fkn dream 😎 I saw these dudes on some sort of ice catamaran nailing across MOVING ice sheets on the huge river that’s in the city by the hotel and frozen water fall - which had blokes ice climbing up it ffs! 🧗♀️ what a place 😃 Wonderful people The most photographed hotel on earth The home of Anton Petrov the world famous Astro vlogger And also home to you mate Quebec’s YT Fpv guy 👍😎
