I must say I really enjoy these aerial photos of a roofless Pagoda  - ever since seeing James? one here in the forum.

With the number of drones around we should be able to do this more economically now

Rob,

you mean like this ... (I took screen shots just for you from the Drone video taken by Fred at PUB. Some great shots). Have you seen the video? if not you find it in the Event area of the site.

This one? ;) Taken out of the bedroom window of my old apartment


The pic at the top really shows the steering wheel "break" angle: perhaps it's the ivory against the dark background

If you recall our Pagoda World Issue 12 December 2010 had a partial photo from the top of two nice Pagodas ... one LHD and one RHD both of nice colour combinations.

Erik's (DB 573) and Naj's (DB 904) cars.

Here is another pic of the both - taken from the balkony of the town hall.
