They were only showing the nicer areas that have been recently redeveloped. They didn’t show any of the NE/SE. industrial area or Ogden/Bonnybrook area. Your only seeing about 35/40% of Calgary in this video.
Surrealplaces here :-) Wow, Josh, this is the best video I've seen of Calgary. Everything about it is well done, and shows off the city. Tourism Calgary should use this in ad campaigns.
I am moving there from Vancouver Island as it is too pricey to live here. Plus Calgary is a beautiful clean City. Can't wait to start exploring. Well done.
Josh, I’ve seen some very impressive videos of Calgary, but this one totally takes the cake. Spectacular job… editing, music…. All very much to my liking. Thank you.
As an Ottawan after I spent July at an energy environment course in Calgary I urged my senior students to choose the U of Calgary as it was a beautiful campus in a clean, beautiful city where you could go hiking in the Kananaskis, ski, hike at Lake Louise, white water canoe down the Bow River. Great for the outdoor lifestyle.
Beautiful video and FLY too. Since the time I came to this City ..he has completely changed in a fantastically better way. Thank you for sharing this amazing video. Greetings from N.W. Calgary.👌🍁🍹💕🍷👍
@4:32 I have a newfound appreciation for the Wonderland sculpture after seeing this aerial view. It's shadow seems to have volume in a way you can't see from ground level
Love, Love, Love your video of the BEAUTIFUL city I live in. Regardless of what some other negative people have said - boring, ugly etc. I feel blessed to call this city home. Thanks very much for capturing some of its beauty.Best video of Calgary I have seen. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the video! While I was watching it I was thinking “gosh, he is missing my street and I really think is a very nice spot in the city” and then there it was, the very last scene in your video😀. Thank you Calgary, I have to go because of professional goals and after living here for 9 years (7 in the Mission area). Thank you Calgarians for being always so friendly to me and my wife. All the best!
I've briefly visited Calgary going to Banff a few years ago, had I known there was this much to see still I would of definitely spent more time there! Wonderful views and angles all around 😀
This is wonderful Josh. I live in Medicine Hat but have always called Calgary the Hat’s big sister. You have captured the beauty and diversity of my favourite home away from home. ♥️
Josh , I love /hate this video ...I love it , well for the obvious reasons... it's an incredible video of the city that I was born in and spending my whole ( 60 years ) life in ... I hate it , because it shows me just just how much of my beautiful city that I've totally missed out on . ( and yes, that's certainly , a " ME " problem ) . All I can think now , is how to be able to actually find some of these places ( others are obvious ) and make time to see them up close Loved the music , but would also love to have you narrated locations as you flew over them . Back in the mid 70's , in the fall , pre ski season , every year , we would go the Jubilee Auditorium for a couple of skiing film presentations but on by Warren Millar , and Dick Barrymore . Incredible footage , of all kinds of skiing ( snowboards weren't even thought up yet ) , ( oh . and neither were drones ) and each of these guys would be up on stage , doing live narration of what we were seeing . ( often with a good sense of humor ) After seeing those ....one would pray every night for heavy snowfalls in the mountains ( most obviously on the ski hills ) We couldn't hardly wait for ski hills to open . This is 100% what comes to mind of your abilities !!! count me in as a subscriber
As a fellow Mini 2 pilot myself, I am most inspired by your work and congratulate you. I have done snippets myself but frankly got tremendously nervous near the skyscrapers, fearing interference and loss of signal. I am going to revisit my approach next summer. Once again, great work. Roger

Can the next one showcase homegrown musical talent as the soundtrack? (Props for classical music, though!! Maybe the Calgary Philharmonic, Calgary Opera, Land's End Ensemble, or Kensington Sinfonia? Any local musicians would be awesome, though...)
Do you need a permit to fly around the city? I could just imagine if you didn’t there would be drones everywhere because it’s such a lovely place to view from the air… Seriously Canadians are lucky to live in such a place.
I kayak at the Glenmore most weekends in summer. It takes a few hours of constant paddling to get around. Love watching the sailboats too. On a clear day, you can see the mountains. A great asset!!
Not allowed to fly over Nose Hill or Fish Creek Park, actually based on City (Nose Hill) and Provincial (Fish Creek) rules. Some people complaining I am not shooting enough of suburbs - there are a few suburban areas like Winsport and the NW YMCA in there, but overall the view over a sea of single family houses isn't that interesting - to my eye, at least.
Born and raised here In Calgary. I have watched historical buildings be demolished, only to see big boxy buildings go up with barely any character to them...which is a shame
Gosh, I probably did about 50 flights or so that gathered the variety of footage that made up this video. I have a couple others from 2021 as well. Hope to go further afield and capture more of the areas surrounding the city this year too. Thanks for the kind words.
This is AWESOME, but it's mostly just one part of the city haha. Downtown and surrounding South communities. Next time showcase the North as well!! But great presentation overall :)
