Aerial stock footage of Austin, Texas
Austin's sprawl of glass towers against the Hill Country horizon makes it one of the most visually striking cities to capture from the air. This collection includes drone and aerial footage shot over Austin's most recognizable locations — from wide establishing shots of the downtown skyline reflecting off Lady Bird Lake to low-altitude passes over the Congress Avenue Bridge, the Texas State Capitol dome, and the winding curves of Pennybacker Bridge at sunset.
