They are bird's-eye-views that show the incredible colours and shapes of Eastern Europe.
Lithuanian photographer Karolis Janulis has been interested in aerial drone photography since 2013 and focuses his work on simple compositions that capture people going about their daily lives.
These include relaxing on the beach, commuting to work or fishing in a lake.
'I have always been in love with perspectives from above - so many things are still unseen,' Karolis Janulis told Americanphotomagazine.
'It just took some time to learn how to fly safely and effectively and to understand the gear,' he says. 'But I think the gear is not as important as the photographer.'
Before turning to aerial drone photography, Janulis sought raised locations to take pictures from, such as rooftops and hot air balloons - now he can speed up the process dramatically using his DJI Phantom 2 vision quadcopter to fly to hard-to-reach vantage points.
