Panvelvet is one of the top contributors in the AirVuz community; he was a Winner at the second annual Drone Video Awards and a Finalist for the sixth annual NYCDFF.  These are good reasons to check out this fantastic new drone video from Hong Kong, which opens with a tremendous shot looking west past the Central Tower, Hong Kong's third-tallest building.  Then you'll be treated to a series of top-down shots of the narrow streets of the Financial District, a nice shot of the harbor at the :45 mark, followed by some stunning night shots.

For a first upload to AirVuz, new contributor CINEMADRONE brings us these stunning drone views from Russia's Altai Mountains.  The graceful peaks of this range lie primarily in Russian Siberia but also cover portions of China, Mongolia, and Kazakhstan.  The tallest of the Altais is Mt. Belukha, which has a summit elevation of just over 4.5k meters above sea level or around 14.8k ft.  The various valleys between the mountains have few passes between them, making this some of the most remote territory on earth.  

Behold this stunning drone video from Italy's Lake Como, compliments of top AirVuz contributor Marchino.  Starting at the :09 mark, you'll see Villa Balbianello, a famous villa on the western side of the "wishbone" shaped lake, followed by a view of the island known as Isola Comacina.  At the :30 mark you'll see the storied town of Bellagio, where the lake's two southern branches come together.  Other highlights include the contemporary Life Electric sculpture in Como.  This video was a Drone Video of the Week Finalist in December, 2020.  

New AirVūz contributor and drone pilot johnzi323 used his DJI Mavic Pro 2 drone  to create this stunning aerial reel of Hawaii's Big Island.  The Big Island, which is officially named the Island of Hawai'i is the largest of the islands in the Hawaiian archipelago. The easternmost of the four main islands, the Big Island is home to vast landscapes which include colored beaches, active volcanoes, scenic waterfalls, and lush rainforests.  This video earned a Drone Video of the Week nomination in December 2020.
