Nice deep blues in your drones shots mate. I have recently been to Italy, but not yet to Sicily! Looks as old and as beautiful as I expect. What drone do you use for your videos? Hope flying there was more fun than me spotting police and military men in Roma (I did not fly at all there)

I'm flying a Mavic Air. Flying was fun indeed; the Italians are so relaxed and that's why I love the country. I flew right under the noses of local police. In the fountain scene, there is a police station on the right. The building left of the cathedral appears to be city hall and had an armed guard at the door, in the port scene I launched right in front of the harbour police station.

The key is, to use a small "toyish" drone and make it all look naturally and as a matter of course. That works just fine off-season in the lesser destinations. After all, you're basically not doing anything wrong. BTW, in Italy you need insurance and it's a good idea to carry proof of that.

I wouldn't recommend droning in areas where they're really watching out for terrorism, like the highly frequented areas in Rome, the Vatican, Venice, or places like the Piazza dei Miracoli in Pisa for example. Those are definetely no-fly-zones, and they're enforced. (Photo taken with the soldier's permission!)

Interesting... So I have a Mavic Pro, which is small but still large (and loud) enough to get on others peoples nerves. I saw the air and thought the size did look better and less attention (negative) grabbing. Glad to hear the Italians were so chilled about it. I am always very aware of flying anywhere near people with guns or target areas, just happened that most of Roma was such an area! Good idea to ask permission :)

P.S - I have tagged you in a recent post I did about a website that you will certainly find useful - as you travel with your drone. Look forward to seeing more of your stuff

Hallo Volker,

wie man es von dem Meister des fliegenden Auges gewohnt. Immer genau so dosiert, dass die Lust auf mehr nie verloren geht.
Und dabei die Schönheit der Stadt voll und ganz rübergebracht.
Nur, dem rosarot Huuschdegutzje, dem hätt isch das Mikro aus de Hänn gehoolt. Mej liewer Herr Gesangsverein ...

Bis dann meij Gudder

Apropos Bürgschaft: Aangäwwer!

Volker

Hä? Wer issn das?

Huuschdegutzje

Die Musik hat Spaß gemacht. Wenn es live ist, nimmt man es, wie es kommt, im Urlaub sowieso. Übrigens ist Frau Nobile wohl so etwas wie eine lokale Berühmtheit, weil sie bei The Voice of Italy im Fernsehen war. Die Kids haben nach dem Auftritt wie verrückt Selfies mit ihr gemacht. Sie kann scheinbar auch anders als "Prrrrrrrrrrrrr Besame Besame":

Aangäwwer

super Bilder die du da eingeholt hast mit deiner dji. Solche Drohnen Bilder sind immer wieder ein Genuss.. Danke dir

Wow. This Island is beautiful. Love the colors, the sun.

Great video and pictures!!
What did you do? I understand that special permission is needed for using an drone in some areas that you covered!
In any case: nice job!
Thank you very much for share!!

Wow, this is awesome...I wish I could visit this place one...

technically and aesthetically eye pleasing. The right amount of umph, energy, beauty, and brilliance - all rolled into one well-crafted piece that would just as good in a movie theatre as in my hand - on my phone. Congrats. Keep winning.

Magnificent and wonderful.
I felt like Zeus watching this video, it really is fascinating to capture video with a drone, it gives you many beautiful images.

I’m so sorry :((

An incredibly lovable region. you beautifully choose places to your rest, I love. the dish you have got tasted appears heavenly and mouth-watering. I believe that their look is completely encouraged via the taste further as scrumptious as it's miles lovely. Based on your depiction, it's extremely tasty. Exceptionally else, I loved crabs and fish within the closing picture.
