The Mid-Atlantic region of the United States includes some of its oldest and most important cities such as New York City, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, not to mention its capital Washington, DC. Important physical features of this area include an extensive Atlantic Ocean coastline, the massive Chesapeake Bay, important rivers, fine natural seaports and harbors, and the rolling gentle hills of the Adirondacks in Upstate New York. With a mix of the most important North American cities, extensive beaches and seashore, and brilliant Fall colors, the aerial views of the Mid-Atlantic Region are impressive.

The Inner Harbor of Baltimore, Maryland was once one of the busiest shipping ports on the USA's East Coast. As shipping technology progressed, the port's shallow waters could not accommodate the larger ships, and the port was relocated to deeper waters. Eventually the area was redeveloped into an entertainment/mixed use district. Contributor Eyes in the Sky used DJI Phantom 4 drone to create this aerial view of the Inner Harbour area, with downtown Baltimore in the background.
