It’s the new frontier of photography that is taking pictures to a whole new level – literally, Dronestagram is a new social media app hailed as 'Instagram for drones' and, now with over 30,000 users, the site held a photography competition earlier this month in association with the likes of National Geographic, Kodak, Go Pro, Adobe and some other sponsors, with a panel of judges going through over 5,000 entries to pick a selection of winners.
如今正是攝影的局限將照片拍攝提升至一個(gè)全新的水準(zhǔn)。Dronestagram是一個(gè)新的社交媒體應(yīng)用軟件。如字面意思所示，它被稱作“無人機(jī)的Instagram”，現(xiàn)有超過3萬名用戶。這個(gè)網(wǎng)站在這個(gè)月月初舉辦了一項(xiàng)攝影大賽，由《國家地理》雜志、柯達(dá)、Go Pro相機(jī)品牌、Adobe等類似其他機(jī)構(gòu)資助。專家評(píng)委將在5000多份作品中挑選出獲獎(jiǎng)?wù)摺?/div>

Founder of the app, Eric Dupin, said that despite the controversy that hangs over drones - specifically in terms of military operations and surveillance - there is no denying the incredible new angle the technology has allowed photographers.
這個(gè)應(yīng)用軟件的創(chuàng)始人埃里克·杜邦表示盡管無人機(jī)因被運(yùn)用于軍事演練和偵查而存在爭(zhēng)議，無法質(zhì)疑的是，這項(xiàng)科技給攝影師們提供了一個(gè)全新的角度，拍出震撼人的壯麗照片。

'Some people are scared about these flying machines because they don't know them very well and they just repeat what they hear from other people or the media,’ Dupin told CNN.
杜邦在接受CNN記者的采訪時(shí)稱：“一些人因?yàn)閷?duì)無人機(jī)知之甚少，便害怕這些飛翔的機(jī)器。他們只是在重復(fù)從其他人或媒體那聽到的內(nèi)容。”

'But most people I know and meet are fascinated by drones - particularly if they see a demo of what we can do in terms of photography.'
“但我所結(jié)交與遇見的大多數(shù)人都被無人機(jī)吸引，尤其是在看到我們展示的無人機(jī)拍攝照片時(shí)?！?/div>
