Snow at the office but survey work goes on

Name: Crucial Services
Price range: $$$

Being a drone surveyor has many upsides. Being able to grab some lovely photos of the countryside is one of them. Today while surveys were postponed due to the snowfall we took the opportunity to do some calibration tests and updates. Once the snow passed it seemed only right to perform some flight tests following some firmware updates and grab some shots of the snow-covered fields around the office.

View towards Powys, Rodney’s Pillar, Breidden Hill and the quarry. The terracing was picked out nicely by the snow.

The view towards West Felton and the heart of #Shropshire beyond

The footpath from the village to the Montgomery Canal is a busy route. Interesting to see how the off-lead dogs have run a round

The view over the Montogomery Canal at Aston Locks 2 over Aston Locks 3 towards Pant and the Welsh border
