Between the introduction of drone technology, and today’s laws limiting or banning their use, there was a glorious period when you could fly a camera almost anywhere.

These are the results of two years travel with a quad-copter in my backpack.

More info: amoschapplephoto.com

1. The neatly arranged suburbs around Sagrada Familia, Barcelona

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-ChappleOctagonal city blocks and spacious street corners create spectacular view. Al fresco beer & tapas in the town become such a delight.

2. Church on Spilled blood, St. Petersburg

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-2In the early days (2013) you could fly drones almost anywhere.

3. The Hermitage Pavilion, St. Petersburg in autumn mist

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-3I can’t see what the camera is seeing. People find that weird but I quite like the suspense of not knowing what I have until I get the camera in hand.

4. The Lotus Temple, dotted with pigeons at sunrise. Designed by an Iranian exile, the building serves as the centre of the Bahai’i faith in Delhi

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-4When I asked “what about helicopters?”

5. Clouds swirl through the pillars of Sagrat Cor Church, high on a hill above Barcelona

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-5Twenty minutes later a thunderstorm hit the city.

6. Russia’s candy cane capital

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-6

7. Jama Masjid, the heart of Islam in India

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-7Curiosity got the better of them and I was clear for takeoff.

8. Taj Mahal and gardens as the day’s first tourists trickle in

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-8Security there is incredibly tight and I got busted.

9. The Taj Mahal in morning light

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-9At the Taj though, things were very different.

10. The star fort at Bourtange

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-10Three centuries after the last cannonball was fired in anger at the fort, it now serves as a museum and center of a sleepy farming village in eastern Holland. The low, thick walls were designed to offset the pounding force of cannon-fire.

11. St. Peter & Paul Cathedral, Petergof

12. Morning over Maximum City

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-12Known to the locals as a “Hill 3″ this knoll jutting above Mumbai’s northern slums is no more valuable than the land below. Access to running water, which the hill lacks, is more valuable than any view.

13. A ruined college inside the breakaway republic of Abkhazia

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-13Ethnic cleansing went down here in the 90s and areas like this one (near Gali) are now a twilight zone of empty buildings and overgrown farmland.

14. The windswept Liberty Statue, overlooking Budapest

15. And even finer by night

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-15The barge in the center of the river is packed full of fireworks. An hour after this pic they were sent booming into the night sky to celebrate the country’s national day.

15. The Katskhi Pillar, where a Georgian hermit has lived for the past twenty years to be “closer to god”

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-16If you look close you can see the ladder. The terrifying ladder which I eventually had to climb.

17. A knot of fishing boats at the entrance to Sassoon Dock, Mumbai

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-17In India I was sometimes told “no photography allowed here sorry”.

18. Paris’ Sacré-Cœur glowing in a hazy sunrise

19. Worker and Kolkhoz Woman striding into the future that was

AD-Illegal-Photography-Quadcopter-Amos-Chapple-19Built for the soviet pavilion of the 1937 world fair in Paris, the steel masterwork now stands in the suburbs of northern Moscow.

20. New Zealand, where only the hobbits have a hard time

21. Moscow’s Hotel Ukraina lit up at dusk

This picture was taken as the Russian stock markets crashed on “Black Tuesday”. Little whiffs of panic could be felt on the street. Moscow never looked or felt more like Gotham city.

  • ‘The Pilar’ by Ishmael Randall Weeks consists of four concrete columns that have books embedded in them.

Share with someone who would love these pillars of wisdom!

  • The term “living in a bubble” may be associated with being disconnected from the harsh realities of the world, but in this case, it’s actually a good thing!

The Living O’Pod is an experimental pod house that promotes a better lifestyle through the integration of nature into the home’s design. Designed for two people to comfortably stay in, the pod is shaped like a transparent bubble that sits amongst the wilderness, with a design so minimal, it puts its surroundings front and center.

The two-story pod comes with a steel frame as its main structure, and glass panels all around, almost like a glass igloo. While this undeniably does a number on resident privacy, its remote location itself gives you the solitude you need to live with absolute transparency. The obvious benefit? Incredible lighting, stellar views, and probably the best sunrises and sunsets you could enjoy within the comforts of your bed!

  • Called Island, this double-decker driverless tram has been designed especially for the city of Hong Kong, for the post-pandemic age. It won the 2020 GIDA Design Award.

The exteriors have been influenced by the buildings with curved curtain walls found in Hong Kong. Huge circular benches mark the interior of the tram, which allows passengers to sit facing outwards. The interiors feature charcoal gray walls, cushioned seats, wooden floors and trims with natural finish.

  • The “Revolver” wall-mounted desk by Teixeira Design Studio features a corner drawer, which opens like a matryoshka in order to create a wider working area. The fun part is that you can play around with the 3 drawers through a swiveling and spinning system (hence the name) and overlaying elements.

  • Odessa-based architecture and interior design firm K&B Partners designed the ‘Shell House’. Led by Kovtun Yuri and Burakov Egor, the firm created this structure to function as a modern family recreation center, located near the sea in Koblevo, Mykolaiv region, Ukraine. The intriguing structure draws its inspiration from mussels – a common mollusk found in the local area.

The mussel-shaped home is primarily built from wood – including the structure, and the outer decorative shell. Although situated on a single site, it serves as a home for multiple families. It is targeted toward small families of two people, or larger families of four or more people. If you look closely at the intriguing shape of the structure, you’ll notice that it mimics the shell of a bivalve mollusk specifically. Two massive shells are connected via a hinge, giving the modern recreation center a completely innovative and unique exterior.

Multiple Shell Houses are placed next to each other to create homes for different families. We, presume, each family will get their own living unit to reside in. A view from the top showcases mussel-inspired cottages that are almost smushed together – creating not only an interesting visual but architectural structures that somehow perfectly merge with their surroundings.

  • Persian interior with a slight Baroque touch by @neilleach14 [IG]
  • Gaia Tower, designed by @marianacabugueira [IG], is a virtual high rise project inspired by the Greek goddess of the Earth. The Tower completes the third Island Chain part of the Trinity Islands, a genesis project part of the city of Wiami, a Web3 virtual city that Wilder World is currently building.

All three islands are fully public and made for Community Building, they are projected as a refuge for virtual Peace and Serenity. The gameplay and Web3 development that is in progress aim for the High-Fidelity experience of space through hyper-realistic space-rendering and space navigation.
