It's becoming clear that Chicago looks best from the perspective of a drone. The above video from Soaring Badger Productions is no exception as it shows the city's transition from winter to spring. The drone captures some stunning shots of the thawing lakefront, the green river on St. Patrick's Day, and a marriage proposal etched into the sand on a beach.
The departure of winter has always been an inspiring experience for Chicagoans, but the newfound ability to stick an HD camera onto a remote-controlled helicopter makes it slightly more amazing.
