Before we ever took photos with a drone, we were inspired by the aerial images taken by the pros. Even today, great photos make us wonder how people could think of such imaginative, eye-opening shots.<\/p>\n

Flip the perspective
\n<\/strong>Drones give a point of view that no other camera can give. Take full advantage and use that aerial view to create marvelous illusions below. Ask your friends to lay on the ground and strike whatever pose you can imagine. Using the DJI Mavic Pro <\/a>from Buydig.com, something as ordinary as a park bench or wall could look like the ledge of a building. Use this eye trick to give the illusion of leaping from one to another.<\/p>\n

Look for symmetry
\n<\/strong>A bird\u2019s eye view also lets you find the beauty that you just can\u2019t recognize from the ground. A park or even a town square may reveal incredible symmetry. Capture it with a shot that makes a perfect mirror image.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nFind dividing lines
\n<\/strong>Sharp lines shape the composition of photos, directing the viewer\u2019s eye. Try doing the same with a road or trail. Frame your shot to make the line extend from left to right, top to bottom, or even corner to corner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nCapture unique patterns
\n<\/strong>Take out your Mavic Air<\/a> and look for unique locations. You\u2019d be surprised to find the kinds of interesting shapes and patterns that exist out there.<\/p>\n

Take an aerial panorama
\n<\/strong>Never underestimate the Mavic Pro\u2019s<\/a> panorama feature! With a wider landscape, you can give the viewer an entire view, rather than an incomplete picture. Fly high, choose your spot, then shoot, rotate, and shoot again.<\/p>\n

Find contrasting colors
\n<\/strong>Bright, vivid hues look stunning from above. The higher the contrast, the more dramatic the shot. So make sure you play bright colors and darks together, and even play up complementary colors.<\/p>\n

Reinvent the selfie
\n<\/strong>With the DJI Mavic Air Quadcopter Drone<\/a> from Buydig.com in your hands, ditch the selfie stick for good! It doesn\u2019t matter what kind of backdrop you use because you\u2019ll look like you\u2019re on top of the world anywhere with an aerial perspective.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Look for repetition
\n<\/strong>Some places provide a great opportunity for repetition. Carefully arranged objects can form precise lines. A place like a shipping yard or train station can have a huge collection of identically-shaped objects. Even your ordinary neighborhood has character with all its houses in a row.<\/p>\n

Shoot abstract
\n<\/strong>Pilot the\u00a0Mavic Pro\u00a0<\/a>and look for curvy lines or irregular shapes. Frame up your shot in a variety of ways, and capture every unique view.<\/p>\n

Capture shadows
\n<\/strong>When the sun is low, just before sunset, our shadows stretch out into gigantic silhouettes, projecting our every move and activity. Although you might not look like much from above, your shadow can\u00a0tell the whole story.<\/p>\n

Shoot the horizon
\n<\/strong>After playing with your shadow, it\u2019s time to get a view of the horizon. Here, you can combine any of the previous tips to create a breathtaking view. Find symmetrical lines or weird shapes, high contrast or fantastic shadows. With a unique perspective and hard-to-reach angles, a photo of the horizon gives a kind of depth and life to an image that few others can.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With these tips, there\u2019s no doubt you\u2019ll want to be out flying all day, looking for the perfect mirror image, the strangest curves, or the perfect selfie location.<\/p>\n
