Birds-eye views of the picture-postcard island of Mauritius taken by drone

It's not often we share posts that are purely of an aesthetically pleasing nature, but here at Horizon Imaging we still enjoy taking aerial photos for the fun of it!

Last week our Director, David Hogg enjoyed a holiday in Mauritius and he took a portable fold-up drone with him - the technologically state-of-the-art DJI Mavic Pro.

Working with Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council to refresh their stock image library

If you were to ask people about the images that came to mind when Basingstoke was mentioned, I expect many would think of office blocks, shops, roundabouts, industrial and housing estates set within a thriving town.

However, if you ‘row back’ just a few miles from the town centre, there is a diverse range of landmarks, open spaces, activities and destinations for people to explore and enjoy; all set in the beautiful Hampshire countryside. Hampshire is known as Jane Austen country. Famous novels such as Pride & Prejudice were drafted from her home in Steventon, just 7 miles from Basingstoke, but a world away in many ways.
