Multiple Drone Video of the Week Winner DroneProduction.ru brings us another stunning drone video from the Caucasus Mountains area of Southern Russia.  This video was filmed in Chegem Canyon, which is just north of the main range in the Kabardino-Balkaria Republic, one of the provinces of the North Caucasus Region.  The steep, narrow gorge is lined with spectacular rock formations, as you'll see in the video.  The canyon's namesake river flows on a northerly route away from the mountains, before turning east to join the Baksan River.

Contributor and drone pilot Rikk08 created this amazing aerial mini-tour of Namibia in southern Africa.  In addition to some amazing shots of the Namib Desert and the beautiful Atlantic seashore, the first part of the video will give you a very rare look at one of the world's most well known canyons.  Fish River Canyon is in the southern part of the country, along the South African border.  Carved by the river bearing the same name, with a maximum depth of 550 meters (over 1.8k ft.) it's the deepest gorge in Africa.
