Drone sunrise photos
My son is always an early riser, and he had is drone ready to fly earlier this week to capture the sunrise over Lake Michigan.

Lake Michigan is one of the 5 Great Lakes in the northeastern US. These photos were taken in Chicago Illinois, looking over toward the opposite shore in Michigan.
Lake Michigan gets its name from the Native American Algonquin word 'Michi gami' which means big lake. The lake is so big that you cannot actually see the Michigan shore. It is 118 miles across and 307 miles in length. A big lake, indeed!
Chicago in the early morning light.
Enjoy the sunrise!
And remember to go join the DRONE COMMUNITY!
Cool use of the drone for this shot. I wouldn't have thought to do it. But then again I don't get up that early 😅
Yeah... Catching the sunrise is for those who wake up before the sun. 😉
I'm loving these drone photos! the sunrise is gorgeous and the city always an interesting subject. My younger son has a friend that is actually a licensed drone pilot 😁 Flys them for work sometimes - hasn't figured out how to make it a full time gig 🤔
I saw people playing with drones, but I have not thought about it as a job/profession so far. So far I thought that people do it only as a hobby and as a free time activity. So they do it only for fun. It is an interesting aspect that some people use drones as a job, and get paid for it.
This weekend is the Chicago Airshow and drone flights are prohibited!
Wonderful captures of the lake @melinda010100 😊
Have a great day further 👋🏻
Thanks! It's the weekend! Hope you have a good one!
Yay… weekend! Thank you so much @melinda010100 😊
Enjoy yours!
Lovely view!!!!!
Thanks!
Some great shots. Is this the UP part of Michigan?
Thanks! No, this is on the south end of the lake. The UP of Michigan is the north shore.
Nice !! I like the shot on the town
Thanks! Morning light is a great time for photos!

Sunset photos are always beautiful and peaceful. Great👍
Thanks! Both sunrise and sunset are wonderful times of the day.
Love waking up to a nice sunrise. Thanks for posting to our community!
Gorgeous sunrise (but aren't they all..afterall, it is Mother Earth we are talking about here and don't ever imagine that she's put in a bad one...😅..)
But wow, how big is Lake Michigan. I knew it was big bit those drone shots make it look like its looking out onto an ocean!
It is a massive body of fresh water!
The Great Lakes are amazing, for lots of reasons. Great to hear from you, always! ♥️
Well it's such a shame I missed it when I was over there last millenium so I can't wait to come over and see it when I come back. I know that Clive Cussler featured the great lakes in one of his Isaac Bell novels (and probably many more since too).
Great to be back and see you again too!
Lets hope I can keep it up when I go back to work at the start of Sept....
I enjoy looking at drone photos and videos.
Beautiful shots.
Beautiful sunrise!
Melinda, I hope my next payment has come to you. 😁 🙏
Interesting and beautiful photos, @melinda010100. :) Drone photos? Not my cup of tea.
Let's leave the sky to the birds.
Have a lovely weekend!
