1. Merge Your Shots
I recommend taking Automatic Exposure Bracketing (AEB) photos, which takes five photos instead of just one. Two will be underexposed to include more details in the highlights (the sky for example) and two will be overexposed to include more details in the shadows. Now Lightroom has this handy option to merge those five photos together into one HDR photo. It samples the best areas from all five photos, so you’ll end up with a photo that has all the detail you want in the highlights and also in the shadows. That’s what they call having a “maximal dynamic range.”
Now how do we do this? Very simple, you select all five RAW photos with ctrl +, clicking them individually or selecting the first one and then holding ctrl + and tapping the right arrow key. This will include the photo on the right into the selection. Do this until all the desired photos are selected (the background will light up grey). Then you right-click anywhere in the selection and chose “Photo merge” – “HDR … .” A pop-up will open and Lightroom will create a preview.

Windracers Mail Delivery
With its partner Windracers Ltd., Royal Mail has become the first UK parcel carrier to deliver mail to a UK island in a 70-mile, beyond-line-of-sight, autonomous flight to the Scilly Isles. Tasked to better connect the islands’ remote communities, a consortium including Royal Mail, Windracers Ltd., DronePrep, University of Southampton, Excalibur Healthcare Services, and Consortiq Limited is funded by UK Research and Innovation.
Counting Penguins
Counting penguins is harder than it sounds. With freezing rain, snow, and chilling winds that limit the flight windows for the surveys, it takes scientists using three full days to map the location of 300,000 nesting pairs of Adélie penguins on Antarctica’s Cape Crozier.

UAS TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT The Key to the Future of Drones
In 2012, Congress passed the FAA Modernization and Reform Act, which established a deadline for the agency: achieve full integration of drones into the airspace by 2015. As the calendar rolls over into 2021, this begs an obvious question: “Are we there yet?”
