Industrial and Architectural Photography Blog
Field notes from industrial and architectural assignments across Spain and Europe.

Drone Permits in Madrid: What Every Commercial Operator Needs to Know Before Taking Off
Flying a drone over an industrial site, construction project, or logistics facility in Madrid sounds straightforward. In practice, you are almost certainly operating inside one of Europe's most complex airspace structures, and the consequences of getting it wrong start at 45,000 EUR.…
