    I lived there for almost 20yrs and it's hard to imagine what that would have been like to see in person. Eerily reminiscent of when they told everyone to shelter back when they were hunting for the marathon bombers.

    Love it! I love Boston! What a gorgeously beautiful city!
    There’s a seemingly natural balance that the city possesses that few other cities have.
    Fantastic work, my Friend! Please, more of this of Boston and in a more expansive and extensive and varied form when she's back on her feet thumping and pulsating again!
    Show Boston to the world!
    I must add that not only did you produce a fantastic video but a more perfect and and a more fitting sound track could not have been selected!

      I had thought about that... main issue is most of these places I had increased altitude allowance for a period of time and you can't legally fly over people or moving cars... which is why this was a very unique chance to fly during the pandemic

    In a city of 5 million people you would think that a few more people would be breaking the rules to take a bike ride and soak in the solitude. It's a bit eery how, with nearly a million in the city proper alone, I didn't even see ten people walking or biking in this video. Like it's in the Twilight Zone.

    Is it possible to legally fly a drone in Boston? I'll be around for a weapon and would love to get mine in the air but all of Boston, is within 5 miles of an airport.

    • @SchuylerOrtega
      @SchuylerOrtega  4 года назад +1

      eNeVe Family 100%. Are you a hobbyist? Register your drone with the FAA, put the number on the outside of your drone and use a site or app to request airspace authorization. Boston Logan actually has an 8 mile radius around it for controlled airspace but it’s large enough it’s LAANC enabled. Google LAANC but that’s what makes flying legally possible to altitudes above ground set by Logan, for day time flying only. Shoot me an email if you have question, info (at) SchuylerPhoto.com

    • @SchuylerOrtega
      @SchuylerOrtega  3 года назад

      Simple question, large answer. All of Boston proper is within 5 miles of Logan so you need airspace approval everywhere. There is a grid system over the city and you can request up to the max height in each grid with little effort using an app like KittyHawk (the grid system is called LAANC if you want to Google it). If you want to fly above that height or in a grid that is a no fly zone (aka 0 altitude) you need permission from Logan and it’s a little bit longer process. I had increased altitude for every location in my video and a few are no fly zones (like near the Zakim) but I have authorizations for there as well.
