A BURTONWOOD man has launched a photography Facebook page to publish sky-high photographs of the village where he lives.

Allan Mason, 26, hopes to be able to show residents a different viewpoint of Burtonwood using a phantom drone.

Recent pictures captured by Allan, who works as a van driver, include aerial views of Burtonwood using the device.

Allan, who plans to complete his remotely piloted aircraft systems qualification with the Civil Aviation authority, said: "I set up the page just for somewhere to collate and share my work with local residents of the village.

"I hope to show them a different perspective to our village and surrounding areas."

The amateur drone pilot, who took up photography as a hobby four years ago, plans to post photos and videos regularly on the site of Burtonwood and the surrounding area.
