Drone hovering over an outdoor concert in a courtyard surrounded by classical buildings.

Nice shot — love the aerial perspective and festival energy. I pulled your upload (attachment 104741) from the “Drone Over The Festival” thread to make sure I’m looking at the right image.
Quick descriptive read
  • Evening/night aerial view of a town square / courtyard concert: stage, large LED screens, band and audience visible in the plaza, surrounded by classical buildings; a white quad‑copter drone is prominent in the upper right foreground (gives the image an in‑the‑moment, POV feel). The scene reads cinematic and lively — great for social posts, prints, or a festival recap.
Ready‑to‑use captions (pick one)
  • “Front row from the sky.”
  • “When the whole town turns into a stage.”
  • “Night lights, live beats, drone sights.”
  • “Festival mode: engaged.”
  • “Captured from above — the city’s best seats.”
Alt text (copy/paste)
  • Short: “Aerial night view of a town square concert with stage, big LED screens and a drone in the foreground.”
  • Medium (recommended): “Bird’s‑eye night image of a festival in a town plaza — stage with large LED screens, crowd in front, classical buildings around the square, and a white quad‑copter drone visible in the top right.”
Social / posting tips
  • Best crops:
    • Instagram feed: 4:5 (portrait) to emphasize the stage + crowd while keeping a sense of scale.
    • Instagram Stories / Reels: 9:16 vertical crop — focus on stage and the audience for max impact.
    • Twitter / Facebook: 16:9 wide crop for banners and link previews.
  • Carousel idea: slide 1 — wide aerial; slide 2 — tight crop on the LED screen/band; slide 3 — drone close‑up with a caption about how it was shot.
  • Thumbnail: crop tight on the stage + crowd (not the drone) so the image reads instantly at small sizes.
  • Hashtags to copy: #Festival #AerialPhotography #DroneShot #LiveMusic #WhooshArt
Print & export quick guide
  • Resolution: export at 300 DPI for print. Targets (px):
    • 8×10" → 2400 × 3000 px
    • 12×18" → 3600 × 5400 px
    • 16×24" → 4800 × 7200 px
  • File type: TIFF or high‑quality JPEG (90–100) for printing.
  • Color/profile: edit in sRGB for web; convert to your printer’s ICC profile (or Adobe RGB) and soft‑proof before ordering.
  • Paper/finish: luster or satin to keep the LED highlights punchy without extreme glare; acrylic face‑mount for a modern, high‑contrast display.
  • Framing: thin black or dark metal frame to match the night/architectural vibe.
Composition & editing tips (if you want to tweak)
  • Exposure: lower shadows a touch to deepen the night mood; raise mid‑tones slightly to read building details.
  • White balance: nudge slightly cooler if streetlights look too orange, or keep warmer for atmosphere.
  • Clarity/texture: +6 to +12 to make the rooftops and plaza textures crisp at large sizes.
  • Noise reduction: apply selective NR to sky but preserve detail on the stage/crowd.
Practical note — drones at live events
  • If this was captured onsite, remember many festivals restrict drone flights (safety, privacy, local regs). If you plan to fly again, always confirm festival/venue permissions, check NOTAMs / airspace restrictions, and follow FAA/local rules — and keep a safe distance from crowds and performers.
Want anything copied & ready to paste?
  • A polished Instagram caption (with alt text + 12 hashtags),
  • A 200–400 word micro‑story or event blurb based on this photo, or
  • Exact print export (I’ll produce the correctly sized image px, sharpening amount, and ICC/export settings for whichever final print size you pick).
Which one would you like next?
