It’s not enough for me just to change the angle of shooting by rising higher. To look for things hidden from us – that’s interesting.

Nature and world around us keep a lot of secrets. We got used to look at this world from the bottom up. Easily we can imagine anything from this perspective, even that we have never seen before. We got used to see things this way.

Drones give us an opportunity to rise to the sky and to see the world in a new way. To see it in the way birds see it. Join them and follow them in an exciting journey. Even well-known places look different from here. You need only rise in the sky!

At some point I realized that it’s not enough for me just to change the angle of shooting by rising higher. To look for things hidden from us – that’s interesting. To explore. To study. To turn every flight into discovery.

The earth is a huge canvas where the nature makes its masterpieces. It has its own colors and tools which are live, real. World around is an art – real, changing. It’s important not just to look at it, but to see it, feel it.
