Travel the World Through 6 Epic Aerial Photos

With a little help from drones, the unmanned airborne vehicles that can fly high into the sky via the human controller on the ground, photographers are now capturing perspectives from around the world that look unreal. To honor the new thrills photographers and drone hobbyists are experiencing, Dronestagram and National Geographic held a photography contest looking for the most spectacular aerial views humans have discovered with the technology.

Winners received cash and more drones to feed their hobby. From a drone's-eye view of a bird's-eye view to the sheer joy of kids playing with a new toy, feed your wanderlust with these award-winning drone photos from around the Earth.
