Spending more time than ever at home can feel mundane. But the creator behind “From Where I Drone” just spruced up your living room.
Dirk Dallas, most notable in the drone industry for running the Instagram account “From Where I Drone,” just published a hardcover drone coffee table book containing loads of aerial images — and it’s stunning.
The 208-page hardcover book is titled “Eyes over the World: The Most Spectacular Drone Photography” and features a collection of about 200 aerial images taken across all seven continents, and the book is organized geographically.
The book, which launched on May 26, is available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. It’s listed at $35, but is currently on sale on Amazon for $29.99.
The book celebrates wondrous aerial photography. But it’s an ode to the drone community as much as it is an ode to drones themselves. The photos come from about 125 different drone photographers (20 of the images were taken by Dallas himself). It’s much in the spirit of Dallas’s beloved Instagram account, which also curates images from the community.
It’s also the first of its kind. There are many drone books that teach you how to fly, or how to take images. This book focuses on the aerial images themselves, providing a source of inspiration for drone photographers to thumb through. It’s an outlet to dream about your next drone photography adventure.
Of course, the images inside the book are a work of art, but so is the book itself. Its photos look lavish, printed on a sturdy-bound book and published by Universe Publishing, a division of Rizzoli International Publications (you may know them for the Rizzoli Bookstore, which opened on New York City’s Fifth Avenue in 1964, not far from Tiffany’s, Saks, and Cartier.
It’s no surprise that Dallas knows what it takes to create a beautiful product. Dallas, who has an M.F.A. and is an assistant professor of graphic design at the College of Architecture, Visual Arts, and Design, founded both FromWhereIDrone.com & CreativeFuture.co, and has done work for major clients including Nike, Toyota, Disney and Starbucks.
