WATCH: New drone film shows Wolverhampton from the skies
Making his home city look 'pretty' was the dream of videographer Luke Dell as he flew his drone high above the streets.
He has created a two-minute film showcasing many of Wolverhampton's well-known sites and landmarks.
They include West Park, Wolverhampton Racecourse and the recently revamped Molineux Subway with its colourful new vinyl walls depicting Wolves’ history on one side and life at the University of Wolverhampton on the other.

"I'm from Wolverhampton and I've seen a few videos and I thought I would try to make Wolverhampton look pretty," the 26-year-old said
"Wolverhampton always gets a lot of criticism so I thought it would be nice for it to be shown in a positive light for a change.
"I chose landmarks and sites that are well-known and that would make best locations for filming."
It took between two and three weeks to shoot and edit the video, titled Wolves, using a DJI Inspire 1 Pro drone.
Bantock House also features in the film along with places of worship including Wolverhampton Central Mosque, the railway and canal network.
There are also views of the city's skyline that not many people get to see without the help of a drone.
Luke, whose previous projects have included a film about homelessness in the city, said he was pleased with the response the film has had since it was uploaded on YouTube.
"I've always been interested in videos and drones are the next stage, that's the way technology is going as there is so much you can do with them," he says.
Luke, who lives in Fordhouses, has set up his own firm Sankofa Drone Services and currently awaiting the final go ahead from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) as al drone operators must get permission to carry out commercial operations.
Luke will specialise in aerial cinematography and photography as well as building surveys, roof inspections and 3D mapping.
He is also working on a programme to teach young people how to operate drones safely in Wolverhampton, which he hopes to launch before the end of the year.
"The possibilities with drones are endless," he says.
