Capture the harmony between steel and concrete, orange and purple, and water and sky, as they dance one last time under the setting sun. The Stickney Point Road Bridge, as viewed from this soaring drone, it's a testament to the artful blend of human ingenuity and nature's grandeur.
(before flying a drone, check and follow local drone regulations and permit requirements.)

This photo of Stickney Point Road Bridge was taken near Siesta Key Watersports.
From downtown Sarasota, head south on Tamiami Trail (US-41) and follow the signs that will lead you west toward Stickney Point Road. You can park by Siesta Key Watersports (1536 Stickney Point Rd, Sarasota) like I did, which will be on your left if you're heading toward the island.
Launch your drone and fly above the bridge to get a similar view. It's not a restricted airspace so you should be able to fly pretty easily. Keep in mind that you can also park on Siesta Key, but all the parking spots 2 miles off the location require a fee.
