Commercial drones have become popular in recent years, giving photographers a new perspective. Initially, a kite with a camera in 1882 marked the beginning. Today’s more advanced drones allow civilians to capture breathtaking aerial views once government-exclusive. Drones offer a fresh vantage point for both professionals and hobbyists, though it’s not the most budget-friendly pastime. With prices reaching thousands on sites like Amazon, the evolving technology promises even more spectacular visuals in the future.
