While the sun was shining last week I managed to get out with my Mavic Mini and take some new golf drone images and videos of my home course Flixton Golf Course in Manchester, UK. I was sadly a couple of weeks late to catch all the leaves still on the trees. However, there were still some there, and the autumn colours were stunning.

There’s something quite special about the natural warm autumn glow. I absolutely love taking golf drone pictures at this time of year.

I still get a surprise each time I pop the drone up at Flixton GC and I see the stunning Manchester City Centre skyline in the distance. The drone photo that I took earlier on this year, (see last photo of this post) is now immortalised in the Flixton Golf Club Pro Shop. The image has been blown up on a fantastic (I may be a little biased!) canvas by Dave @ Stretford Studios.

Why not also checkout our Google Earth tour of Flixton Golf Course.

YouTube Golf Drone Video

I’ve put a selection of the videos and photos that I captured into the following YouTube video. They’re also down below if you want to look in more detail.

Individual Images

Manchester City Centre in the distance
2nd Tee Box, 5th Green and Manchester City Centre in the background
The low sun created large shadows from the trees to the left of the 5th fairway onto the the 2nd fairway
The mounds on the 7th fairway and the River Mersey beyond
A view from 20 metres above the 9th green with an explosion of leaves
Top down view if trees and the brook between the 8th and 9th
Another tree explosion! This time to the left of the fifth just before the fairway starts
View from 50 metres above the 5th Tee
A view across the course from the 5th fairway to the Flixton Golf Course Clubhouse at the very top of the photo

Spot the difference

Lastly I took a new image to show the difference between seasons on Flixton Golf Course. Below is a picture I took across the course from above and behind the ninth tee back at the beginning of summer. This was taken as the sun was going down late in the evening July 14th 2021.

…and then below is the latest shot taken November 19th 2021 just before lunchtime.

You might be able to see the differences between the two images better in this side by side picture below:

I’ll take another drone photo from this angle further into winter once all the leaves have dropped. Here is that first drone photo from July, sitting pretty in the Flixton Golf Club Pro Shop:

My first ever “Immortalised” drone picture blown up and framed by Dave at Stretford Studios and displayed behind the counter in the Flixton Golf Club Pro Shop

Bye for now!
