Drone photography is having a moment in Philadelphia. Expect more aerial views as more and more folks get their hands on a quadcopter.
This video, shot by Bill Horan, comes from Technical.ly Philly reader Kevin Lee, who writes:

That’s probably because it flies over University City traffic and nearly love-taps a few skyscrapers? We’re not sure, though it’s very nice to look at (minus points for no soundtrack, however).
