The World! A Different Way Through Drone Photography

By Brendan Rose @vmarkdesign

Seeing the world from above is a metamorphic experience. A leafless tree becomes a spider web, a circus transforms into a box of sweets, while a harvest field simplifies into slashes of flaxen and gold. Rarely do we get the opportunity to view the world like this. The bird’s eye perspective drones make it possible by hovering closer to the ground than a helicopter ever could. In the saturated world of digital image, this new angle can give photographers an artistic edge.

The World! A Different Way Through Drone Photography

Are They Safe?

Because of reports of drones being used for spying or smuggling contraband into prison, many still view them with suspicion. But beyond taking beautiful pictures, they are also being used for conservation work, wildlife protection, real estate marketing, wedding photography and many more.Thus, drone photography is the new technology of shooting which provides a different perspective to the viewer and is also very useful in different works.

Even long exposure pictures are possible with drones as the UAVs can now offer a steadier shot than a tripod. With the help of drone photography, most of the drone photographers enjoy photographing without using an expensive tripod. They simply click the best shot by standing in one location, whatever the subject be.

Wedding Photography

One of the newest trends is aerial photography in weddings. The unusual perspective of an outdoor wedding is luring couples to the aerial documentation of their wedding. Of course, special considerations are necessary, such as the ability of the UAV to hold the camera and lens. For mirror-less cameras, and especially DSLRs, drone photographers generally prefer at least a six or even an eight rotor model. In the case of a video, a two or three axis gimbal is essential.

A two-axis gimbal design can tilt (pitch) and also cants (rolls) the camera. The latter adjustment keeps the camera level relative to the horizon. A three-axis system enables the camera to pan as well. If the UAV has retractable landing gear, the photographer has a full 360 degrees of unobstructed view.

Drone photography is changing the way high end real estate is being marketed. In addition to an aerial view of the house and the entire property, it can show the geographical condition of an area as well.
