Northumberland from above: 10 pictures show county as you’ve never seen it before

Photographer Emma Giles, 42, uses a drone or travels on vintage planes to take these beautiful shots These stunning pictures show Northumberland’s most famous landmarks as you’ve never seen it before. Photographer Emma Giles, 42, captured the images by using drone photography and heading out on vintage planes from Eshott Airfield.

Alnwick Castle, Warkworth Castle and the Northumberland[1] coastline feature in the pictures, which Emma shares on her social media pages Northumberland Adventures. Emma, who lives in Druridge Bay, said: “I take captures from around our region and use drone photography to showcase the stunning landscapes and places to visit and stay. “I work with and promote local businesses I discover and love both sharing on my own page and offering commercial photography for their own brand.

I love taking coastal shots and have a passion for our castles and history.” Emma also regularly flies from Eshott Airfield to take to the skies. She said: “I discovered Eshott airfield when they opened their cafe and viewing area and instantly knew I needed to have a go at a flight myself once I watched the aircraft flying in and out.

“I’ve done several flights now with Eshott and it’s just the most unreal experience to see Northumberland from the air.

Their vintage aircraft’s are amazing and such a privilege to be able to fly in them, I love the work the airfield does and the events they hold there’s just such a lovely atmosphere here and everyone is super friendly.”
