A friend posted the following video on Facebook, and I thought it was very cool.
Ian Mercer is the photographer and he took this with a drone and edited on his iPhone (according to his Vimeo blurb.)
I don’t know much about drones, but I’m becoming more intrigued when I see results like these. Piers got an inexpensive drone for Christmas, and the kids had a blast playing around with it until it got stuck in the trusty oak outside our front window. Before that incident, I was able to get a taste of what they can do along with the unique perspectives one can observe with aerial footage.
Because of the work Gil does in Savannah, we’re often privy to off-the-wall photography from atop various job sites, and this video further enhanced my love affair with Savannah from the sky.
Enjoy!
(The music compliments the video well, but for some reason I can’t get it to go through here. I’ll try to edit later. In the meantime, you can get the full effect over at Vimeo.)
Just gorgeous! I forced my husband to bring me to Savannah in the middle of July in 2015 for our anniversary. I immediately fell in love with it’s charm. Looking forward to coming back soon. Thank you for the video reminder.

Oh my goodness! If you loved it in July, you have to come back in spring or fall. I just looked back & remembered your post from your trip in ’15. Gorgeous pictures! Hope you make it back soon! 😊

What a coincidence, I am on a road trip and just happened to be in Richmond Hill at this very moment. Savannah was beautiful!

I did, thank you! It was strange returning home to NC, 31-degree temperature after this past week in FL and GA.

It got CRAZY cold here late Sunday & has been in the 30s all week. I wanna take the kids to the St Paddy’s parade tomorrow, but this frigid weather needs to JET! Stay warm! Glad you made it home. 😊
