Tom Hindley, 22, who lives in Fairford Leys, bought a drone six months ago and has used it to take pictures of landmarks including the Waterside Theatre and Brill Windmill.

He said: “I went to a drone show at the NEC in Birmingham and that sparked my interest. I wanted to get a different perspective on the area and I hope the photos give that.

“The reaction has mainly been positive, sometimes in fields I get walkers or joggers stop because they are interested in what I am doing.
