You are sure to have heard of these little flying cameras that we call drones, that allow photos and videos to be taken from the skies, offering incredible angles and viewpoints. Nowadays, their use is strictly regulated, but when they first arrived on the market, the legislation had not yet been drawn up. As a result of the “jury being out” for 18 months, certain users took the opportunity to survey and shoot famous areas without any authorisation. Here are 12 exceptional photographs, taken by photographer Amos Chapple, that can no longer be taken in 2017.
