Hi everyone, and happy holidays to you all!
For the holidays, I took Spark out to Jaffa today to film some of the beautiful churches there. As a bonus you get a nice view of the Tel Aviv coastline.
enjoy (and happy 2018 to all!)

Very nice, thanks for sharing.

Interesting place!  Like it!

Really nice video. I think I would have opend with the shot of Tel Aviv coastline and the cut to the church. very nice footage. Is it easy to fly in that area? sidd

Great location, thank you for sharing.

Thanks. Maybe you are right about the order, it would have made more punch...

Flying in Jaffa - depends where. St Peter's is in what's called The Old City of Jaffa, preserved and reconstructed tourist area. There's a public garden nearby, so it's convenient for takeoff and landing. There's no official restriction that I know of, and a city inspector went past me, looked at me, and walked away saying nothing.
Immanuel's is located in a residential neighborhood so it's not easy to find a flying spot. i went across the street to the National Center of Messianic Judaism (Jews that believe in Jesus Christ as the Jewish Messiah, yes there is such a thing...) and asked their permission to fly from their parking lot, which they gave me (and came out to watch).
St Anthony's has a public parking lot across the street, so that was easy. Half the kids of Jaffa came out to watch the specticle...

Well I really loved the footage and it is nice to hear that not everyone is offended by drones. I think the biggest challenge is find a placy to fly that is safe yet still good enough to capture sights like yours. I hope you are able to post more in the future. Keep up the good work.
