It wasn’t all that long ago that drones seemed like something out of a science fiction movie. Now they’re common place and even average people can own one for personal use. We’ve seen them becoming increasingly popular with adventure filmmakers, who can now attach a lightweight GoPro camera and capture ariel footage of just about anything. Case in point, check out the beautiful and mesmerizing footage that was shot from a small drone at Steamer Lane in Santa Cruz. The video simply looks amazing and I’m happy that photographers now have these tools at their disposal. Great stuff!
