"Stunning Drone Photos Reveal the Extraordinary in the Everyday"
The winners of the Drone Photo Award showcase the extraordinary beauty found in ordinary scenes from around the world. From a bird's eye view, a rice field in Bangladesh becomes a symmetrical pattern, a Polish playground resembles a mosaic of precious stones, and a communal breakfast during Ramadan in war-ravaged Syria evokes both sorrow and holiness. The competition received nearly 14,000 images from 104 countries, all taken from above using drones. The photos aim to transmit emotion, teach something new, and be aesthetically pleasing.
