With new technology Aerial Photography continues to advance rapidly via the use of drone imagery. In most cases gone are the days when you need an expensive helicopter and film crew to capture that ' birds eye view'. I have recently captured a series of aerial images from around Shenzhen, China.
The vast growth of this City is amazing and it's something that aerial photgraphy captures in a unique way. The DJI Mavic Pro drone has opened the door to exciting new perspectives and stunning visual images . The compact size and light weight makes it ideal for traveling with, it is literally not much bigger than a regular camera.
Drones theses days are becoming a part of society ;however invasion of privacy, irresponsible flying in ’no fly zones’, and safety have become issues of some concern. Drones are however being used in many positive and responsible ways; sadly there is the ‘irresponsible few’ that fly without the necessary skills and precautions.
As a professional photographer, the use of drones has expanded the service, creativity, and new portfolio options that I can now offer to both professional and private clients. The advanced technology DJI is producing aims to make flying safer, and opens a new 'birds eye view' in the world of photography.
