Manhattan Beach, California (from above)

Now that summer is over, enjoy this little tribute to those warm beach days.

Over the past few months, I have been busy capturing aerial footage around Manhattan Beach - one of the most idyllic Southern California beach towns, located south of Los Angeles. This place makes flying easy as everything is so picturesque.

Music: A compilation of classical tracks composed by Stauss and inspired by Kubrick. The pier has always looked a bit otherworldly to me from above so thought this music fits nicely.
