A league of their ‘drone’ – spectacular images shot using drones

These stunning photographs are crowned as some of the best drone photographs in the world. The second International Drone Photography Contest saw entrants submit pictures of high dives, individuals swimming with sharks, mass gatherings and spectacular architecture. Organized by Dronestagram, a social network for drone photography, with the help of National Geographic, the contest saw more than 5,000 pictures submitted across three categories: Places, Nature and Dronies (selfies taken with a drone). The overall winner — which won the Places category and was voted most popular — was a shot titled “Above the Mist,” showing the tip of a cathedral poking through the mist below.
