Farmers are increasing the use of drones in their agricultural operations as a way to capture progress on a broad scale from the sky.
Victorian nurse and drone enthusiast Amanda Brownsea shared a photo from a recent harvest at Lake Hindmarsh on her partner's property.
Ms Brownsea uses Instagram to share photos taken by the drone on her account I See U See Dronelife.
"It took weeks to get this one paddock finished," she said.
