Award-winning photographer Michael Poliza proves once again that a well functioning Drone in the hands of a professional can generate some incredible photo opportunities.
Most of us tend to be somewhat skeptical initially at the capabilities of Drones, voicing concerns as to the possible conflict of causing increased stress to wildlife just to get “the shot”.
Numerous encounters with polar bears however, were very successful, and for the most part the Drone caused less disturbance to the wildlife than other approaches by land vehicle, boat or even on foot.
Drones are here to stay as a tool in the photographers arsenal and properly managed can provide wonderful photo opportunities.
