AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Park in Arlington, Tx. Been trying to get these shots for a while but weather has halted the flying on weekends. Finally a nice Saturday morning with permission from an unnamed place to fly my drone.

Great shots but what about the legal issues involved?
I am surprised you did not have someone alert the authorities, especially with places like stadiums being on the alert for activities like this.
Doesn't the drone have to be registered?
I have a police back ground and avoided buying a drone because some legal and privacy issues are involved.

Not for you to say, but in fact it is registered and I was perfectly legal. Well below the maximum altitude and nothing going on at either stadium and considering I was not "over" either place and at a very safe distance, No issues. The rules state no flying over a cloud of people or over a sporting event which neither was an issue. I have enough sense not to do that. Thanks for your concern but unnecessary.

I love seeing the shots that can be made with a drone. I won't be getting one because I
would probably crash it on the first flight.

You wouldn't if you got the right one. They really are so easy to fly. With GPS built in, it's great and terrific quality pictures.

Very nice, which quad did you fly to take the photos?
