1.You've probably heard a rumour that life in Sydney is pretty sweet? These surfers certainly think so.
2.Drone photographer Gabriel Scanu thinks so too. Over the last six months he's been snapping beaches and rockpools such as this beauty at Narrabeen.
3.Scanu likens flying a drone to playing a video game: "You’re controlling something with a handheld remote and a monitor, which is either a phone or iPad."
4.One charge provides 18 minutes of flying time: long enough to snap a swimmer inside the shark net at Balmoral Beach.
5.If you think Camp Cove is beautiful from sea level, wait until you see it from a drone.
6.Scanu's stunning images reveal how wonderfully close Sydney icons like Icebergs Pool at Bondi are to the ocean.
7.Have you ever seen Bronte Beach like this?
8.Sydney has 44 rockpools: Bronte Baths is definitely one of the most beautiful right?!
9.Ever been snorkeling at Gordon's Bay? World class.
10."Everybody loves the beach and loves going to the beach, but after a while they all look the same from the ground," said Scanu.
11.Sydney’s beaches stretch 70km from north to south, and are never less than spectacular.
12.Wow Maroubra. Magnificent!
13.Idyllic afternoon at La Perouse? Why not.
14.Seriously! This is the fringe of Australia's biggest city!!!
15.Paradise is a place on Earth right? 😎 😎 😎
