In the south Russian forces have taken territory, but partly by avoiding Ukrainian towns. Around Kyiv, Ukrainian forces have foiled numerous attacks.

It’s difficult to believe this image was captured by a drone camera, but we are so happy to say that thankfully it is just that.

The operator watches through the drone’s eyes on a tiny screen and can operate it like a video game. Along with all the skills that the drones present from the business world, the sights and scenes that can be captured only through a drone are nothing short of amazing. Take a close look at this image and see.

When drones were developed, they offered an amazing visual perspective. From military intelligence to home deliveries, the potential behind drones is seemingly endless. This allows a tiny aircraft to fly above, sometimes into confined spaces, while its operator can be miles away.

On George Washington’s Birthday, sometimes called President Day, City Images looks at the way our POTUS preferred to pray.

Washington's Birthday became a federal holiday back in 1879.

At that same time, it was recommended but not adopted that the holiday be renamed Presidents Day, to celebrate Lincoln's birthday as well.
