AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Former Drone Video of the Week Finalist eCKsplorer used a DJI Air 2 to create this excellent aerial view of a sea fortress which once guarded the approaches to Helsinki, Finland.  It's called Suomenlinna, and it's built on a series of islands which lie just to the south of central Helsinki in the Gulf of Finland, an inlet of the Baltic Sea.  The fortress was originally constructed in the 18th century when Finland was controlled by Sweden; it subequently fell under Russian control prior to Finland's declaration of independence in 1917.
