Charlotte Skyline: Sunset Drone Photography
Stunning aerial views of Uptown Charlotte, North Carolina, captured during a golden hour drone flight on March 17, 2026.
This project features a comprehensive collection of professional drone photography and cinematography captured over Uptown Charlotte on March 17, 2026. The series focuses on the architectural heart of the Queen City, utilizing the dramatic transition from golden hour to twilight to highlight the textures and elevations of the skyline. Primary subjects include the iconic Wells Fargo "handlebar" building, the Honeywell and Bank of America corporate offices, and the expansive footprint of Bank of America Stadium, all framed against the shifting colors of a North Carolina sunset.
The technical execution of this gallery emphasizes high dynamic range imaging and precise aerial positioning to showcase Charlotte’s urban density and modern design. In addition to traditional wide-angle perspectives and detailed architectural crops, the project incorporates advanced 360° "Tiny Planet" projections that provide a unique, spherical interpretation of the city’s major thoroughfares and landmarks. These visuals provide a clean, professional look at the evolving skyline, optimized for architectural review and commercial media applications.
