Stories written into the landscape

Flying gives me a different perspective on familiar places. I am drawn to castles, fortifications and landscapes—subjects whose shapes, boundaries and history become clearer from the air. This is the quieter, visual side of Wolkwacht: field notes made with altitude, patience and changing light.

The aircraft

I currently fly two compact DJI drones. Each has a distinct role: one for spontaneous exploration and one for more deliberate image-making.

DJI Flip Fly More Combo

The DJI Flip is my compact option for spontaneous flights. Its low weight, enclosed propellers and quick setup make it useful when the opportunity matters more than carrying a complete camera kit.

DJI Mini 5 Pro Fly More Combo

The DJI Mini 5 Pro is my camera-first option. Its larger sensor, flexible gimbal and obstacle sensing make it better suited to detailed landscapes, difficult light and carefully composed photographs.
