Thursday, May 22nd, 2014

Lets just admit it that we all love taking selfies, however what nineteen-year-old Russian photographer ‘Alexander Remnev’ just did is exactly what others only dream to i.e: TAKING SELFIES ON THE TALLEST SKYSCRAPPERS IN THE WORLD.
The Selfies were taken during his holiday trip in Dubai with his pals. As per reports, they climbed every tower on their own and then pulled out the camera to take the snaps. The most notable building was tallest residential building in the world - Princess Tower which is approx 1,350 feet/
words less, enjoy the lovely snaps and dont forget to share if you like them.

What happens when you record Dubai skyscrapers with Quadcopter ? – Answer: AWESOME Happens!!!

Friday, May 16th, 2014

One of the rising names in the drone / FPV trends is “Team BlackSheep”. They have recently released a video of Dubai they captured with Quadcopters hooked up with their customized equipment. They have covered almost all the skyscrapers in Dubai however worth mentioning is Dubai’s tallest tower in the world – Burj Khalifa.  It would have been more insane if they could have added another battery pack to give enough boosts to its quadcopter motors to hit the top but it is still worth a watch.

Some of the Dubai landmarks covered with Quadcopter are Burj Al Arab, Downtown Dubai, The Palm Island and Burj Khalifa.

 

The video inspires you and you want to be an aerial videographer as well then I must suggest that you check out their shop link @ http://team-blacksheep.com/products/product:202 . Also, if you have such cool aerial footage of Dubai and would like us to share then please do not hesitate to get in touch with us at our google plus or facebook page.
