After going through 4,400 entries from around the globe, the Drone Awards have selected their picks for Drone Photography of the Year. With categories spanning Abstract, Nature, People, Wildlife, Sport and Urban, the winners will have their work displayed in Siena, Italy this fall. Lucky you, because you can see them all here first.

According to the official site, the grand prize winner, Florian Ledoux, will take home the Pangea Prize — a "marvelous crystal sphere" — for his photo, "Above The Polar Bear." He'll have plenty of time to celebrate; the official award ceremony takes place October 27th.
