I have a DJI Mavic Air 2 drone and wrote a post in February 2021 about sharing a few photos taken with the drone in a post. It’s taken me 3 years but here it is.

Sent the drone up to get this aerial shot of the entire Hirbet el-MInya site, the palace built by the Ummayads on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee.

Archaeological park at Mount Gerizim, site holy to the Samaritans. The site is really incredible with a rectangular walled area with a tower and inside an octagonal Byzantine martyrium/church (even with some mosaics).

Great to have a drone to capture the site from above!
I love to take photographs down at the Dead Sea.




Mosaic from a Byzantine church at Tel Shikmona, a site just south of the city of Haifa on the coast that existed from the Late Bronze Age to the Late Byzantine period. This mosaic looked like a landing marker so I let the drone down there.

Was worth the wait!
