First drone picture of Durham

Durham Cathedral is in the background. Picture taken from the North Road area of Durham


This is my first image taken using a drone. Took a bit of time to get there as I was working out the no fly zones, obviously the smaller ones are related to drones, however the large no fly zone relates to helicopters.

River Tees, Gainford, County Durham

Can't believe how lovely the weather was at Gainford. It didn't rain once! We walked along the River Tees to Gainford Spa, a little known spring along the river. Managed to get a few photographs with my drone along the way. One of the photographs is over the River Tees at Gainford showing two bridges no longer in use. The first Barford Bridge which did connect 7 houses to Gainford. The second bridge is an old railway bridge built in 1856 and closed in 1962.
