See the world from the eye of a drone

Technology exists now where we can see the world in a whole new light with drone videography.  It’s possible to see maybe a ruin from a hundred foot off the ground or from 6 foot away. Exploring areas that would be dangerous to walk or stand on.   Videos and photographs are becoming more and more regular on my social feeds and then one day I saw this link www.travelbydrone.com.  This site collates all the videos captured across the world and enables you to search, explore and even submit your own.  Starting off with some local places but as you work your way down the post you’ll be in the mood to book that summer holiday 🙂

Castle Sinclair Girnigoe

Castle Sinclair Girnigoe is a castle located about 3 miles north of Wick on the east coast of Caithness, Scotland, United Kingdom. It is considered to be one of the earliest seats of Clan Sinclair.  See this castle from unique angles that wouldn’t be possible normally.
