Bob Gets Airborne: The DJI Neo Joins the Blog



 



Big news from ground control—Bob’s blog just went airborne.

After years of hitting the streets with a camera in hand, Bob is now adding a new perspective to his storytelling: the sky. Thanks to a thoughtful Father’s Day gift, Bob’s now flying a DJI Mini Neo drone—and he’s planning to use it to elevate his blog posts, literally and creatively.

“It’s like having a ladder to the clouds,” Bob said, after his first flight over Richview Park. “You can see the same place in a whole new way—like the trees are telling a different story when you look at them from above.”

So what can readers expect from this new chapter in Bob’s adventures? Think aerial shots of Toronto’s lane ways, overhead views of festivals, and quiet moments from nature that you’d never catch from ground level. He’s still walking, of course—Bob's not about to trade in his sneakers—but now he’s also piloting.

There’s something very Bob about all of it. He still stops to chat with strangers, still hunts for oddball details and forgotten corners, but now he can show the full layout of a place. A mural tucked behind a grocery store? Now we’ll see the whole alley. A beach town stuck in the past? Now we’ll see its sleepy streets from the sky.

Bob’s first drone photos already made it into his blog, but he promises there’s more coming. “I’ve got this idea for a series called From Bob’s Eye View,” he grinned. “It’s like bird’s-eye, but with more snacks and detours.”

So buckle up. Bob’s still walking, still wandering, but now—he’s flying too.

So, I once shot a wedding without a shot list. Big mistake. Huge. I strolled in with my camera bag, batteries charged, memory cards empty, a...
