Europe from a bird's eye view

Photographer Amos Chapple has taken amazing aerial photographs of European cities. By attaching the camera to a small drone, he was able to reach places inaccessible to most people. Now Europe from a bird's eye view can be seen not only by pilots but also by “flightless birds”. Amos visited such countries as Spain, France, Germany, Italy, Hungary, Turkey, Russia, Georgia, Armenia. Look down on Europe :-) with us.
