The Winners Of The 4th Annual International Drone Photography Contest

1st Prize Winner – Nature: Provence, summer trim by jcourtial

During the past few years, drones have dramatically changed the landscape of photography. So much so that numerous awards, dedicated specifically to aerial photography have emerged. One of them – probably the most prestigious – is Dronestagram, and it has just announced the winners of its 4th annual International Drone Photography Contest.

“Drones are becoming an increasingly accessible way to get a new perspective on the world,” Eric Dupin, CEO of Dronestagram said. “There literally are no physical limits as to where a shot can take place anymore.”

The competition was judged on creativity and photographic quality by a panel of experts, including some from Dronestagram’s partner National Geographic.
