Drone operator spells out unique perspective
Visitors from home and abroad may be familiar with three iconic skyscrapers in Shanghai — the 127-story Shanghai Tower, China's tallest building, the 101-story Shanghai World Financial Center, and the 88-story Shanghai Jinmao Tower.
The buildings' architects say that the rounded facade of Shanghai Tower embodies the future while the other two represent the city's present and past.
But have you ever wondered what the buildings look like from the top down? Shu Bin, an amateur photographer from Shanghai knows the answer — the three super skyscrapers resemble the letters D, I and X.
The 37-year-old Shanghai native, with impaired hearing, discovered this while looking for the 26 alphabet letters from the rooftops of the city's buildings with his drone from January to March.
