Drones are becoming an increasingly accessible way to witness and document our amazing world from a different angle. More and more people are taking to the sky with the help of a drone, and the aerial photography societies that are growing by leaps and bounds are even starting to arrange their awards. This time we present the best works and photos of the winners of the SkyPixel photo contest.

SkyPixel is an emerging aerial photography community. The organizers received about 27 thousand works — both from professionals and amateurs. Three categories were announced: "360", "Beauty" and "Drones in Use".

(11 photos in total)
