17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
An aerial shot of the Chianti region in Italy.

I took my drone on our European vacation to France and Italy but did not have an opportunity to really fly it until we reached the countryside outside Florence. I flew it to an altitude that captured the lowering sun to get the sunbeams in the show. The scene was spectacular and reminded me of Napa, California near my home.
