The advent of unmanned aerial vehicles, more commonly known as drones, has given photographers and film makers a whole host of remarkable opportunities for creating new and exciting pieces of art. Small and lightweight, drones are able to fly close and low, which up until now has been near impossible using manned aircraft. This gives the drones unique access to things that we have never before been able to capture on camera. When this drone was being flown over waters off the coast of Alaska, it came across something incredibly special – a group of humpback whales hunting for their…

So suppose you were a father who walked in on his seventeen year old daughter lying asleep, naked, in the arms of a complete stranger. What would you do? Well, for one Reddit user, this became a reality. The man writes:…
This guy was riding his bike in Greenwood, Indiana when he spotted something incredibly strange occurring in the sky above. Freaked out, he decided to pull out his camera and film what appears to be a beam of light shooting out from behind the clouds at regular intervals. But what is it? Opinion has been split.
