46. Lovers On The Field
Possible Drone Used: DJI Mavic Pro 2
Where to Buy: DJI Drones
Cost: $1,449*
Krzysztof Krawcyzk was the photographer behind “Lovers in a Field,” which featured a newlywed couple, lying in the middle of the field, still wearing their tuxedo and white dress. The photographer said that he was “looking for some abstraction.” He and his subjects had a “boat, drone, and a lot of time.”
Krawcyzk said that the weather conditions included strong winds, and that was able to create the “deer eye/eye of the tiger” effect that is seen in the photo. One of the best wind resistant drones, which you’d need to successfully create a photo like this, is the DJI Mavic Pro 2, which has a wind resistance of 24MPH.
47. Lotus Temple
Possible Drone Used: DJI Phantom 4 Pro V2
Where to Buy: DJI Drones
Cost: $1,599*
Described by one publication as one of the best aerial photographs ever taken, the Lotus Temple Photograph is stunning and nearly ethereal. The photographer’s subject is the Lotus Temple, which is a Baha’i House of Worship located in Delhi, India. Many photographers have traveled far to take a picture of the temple, which is designed in the shape of a lotus blossom.
Though pictures abound, very few aerial drone photos, especially with the unique lighting of this one, exist. The Lotus Temple Photograph might have been taken by a drone like the DJI Phantom 4 Pro V2, which can reach the high altitudes necessary for this landscape shot.
