Hi, I'm John.

I'm starting a fundraiser in hopes of raising enough money to buy a good drone for my photography as I'm unable to purchase one on my own because I'm very ill and in nursing care.

I'm a nature photographer who lives in one of the most beautiful states - Colorado. However, I'm now unable to do the thing I really love, photography, due to being so ill. I'm fully disabled and in a power wheelchair as well, so my ability to even get to local parks is extremely hindered and difficult.

Photography is one of the few things I look forward to and really enjoy. Being creative is very good for my mental health too, especially being in the situation I'm in and around the kind of people who may not be here tomorrow (literally). Getting a drone would vastly improve my circumstances as I would be able to get to many places that I would otherwise photograph, like Sloan's Lake Park, for instance. It would greatly expand my abilities to do photography and sell my work. Given the government only gives me $30 a month to live on because I'm in nursing care, that's a really huge deal.

I know this is short notice as Amazon Prime Days start in a couple of days, but I would like to buy one during then as prices are drastically discounted. I would need a drone that's capable of taking professional quality pictures, obviously, and would like it to be a DJI as they are the best in terms of features, ease of operation, and image quality of photographs and videos.

I've narrowed it down to this:

DJI Mini 4 Pro

The reason being is that it's light enough at under 250g, so it doesn't need registering nor do you need to have a license to fly it, which adds more to the overall cost. The image quality is spectacular.

I want to thank everyone who helps me. I can't express my gratitude enough!
