The dawn of hover vehicles took place just before the Lazarus Flu had become a global pandemic. Thanks to a flood of investment, the vehicles were commonplace along the Silk Road countries and when the infection arrived, these vehicles were adapted for survival. Militant groups took to them for their potential as mobile weapons platforms, and Scimitar was no exception.

 

This vehicle took much longer than it should have, but I have to say I'm actually finally happy with a vehicle I've built. I really like the hover aspect to this, let me know what you think! People I've asked for advice, ranted to about this, or used products from are tagged. Thanks!

And loving those new wheel hubs. They're just perfect for spaceship engines :D

This cloud was just hovering while the sun was setting.

A hoverfly in flight is an amazing thing to see.

My lovely teenage guest and I went to visit the Osprey nests...one chick had already fledged, and the other one took a flight while we were there. This is Mama who stood watch most of the time until she flew up and we captured her in this position, while Papa flew off to capture dinner. An evening of shooting...Grand time!

I haven't been very happy with much of my work lately. Today at lunch I sat out on the front stoop and sat. After about 15 minutes the hummingbirds quit being shy. They were very accommodating. I was actually quite pleased with this one of a female feasting on the black and blue salvia. It is amazing what you can see by just being patient. Now catching the hummingbird chasing the bee would have been very cool! Large

A koa'e 'ula, or red-tailed tropicbird, hovers near a sea cliff nest. They are superb aerial acrobats and the only bird I can think of, other than hummingbirds, that can also fly backwards. Surely the most beautiful of all the seabirds! (Phaethon rubricauda)

Hover Flies often mimic Wasps and Bees to avoid predation - this one certainly has a strong colour scheme!

There are many different hover flies so identification can be difficult - I think this is Syrphus ribesh - but could be wrong.

I have been after a shot of a hovering kestrel for a long time. This opportunity came along last Tuesday evening on a visit to St Aidans nature reserve. Alas this one was a long way off, but the light was good so it will certainly do me for the time being.
