I am relatively new in the drone world, but I have owned my own business in high tech for over 26 years, and have been a photographer for almost as long. I also have an amateur radio license.
I have logged quite a few hours recreation-ally, so I have been practicing getting good shots and safely maneuvering close around obstacles such as towers, building, etc. Most of the work I have done so far has been in real estate. I am looking forward in to getting better drone hardware and spending more time practicing.
