The beach looks even more beautiful when you're looking at it through a bicycle wheel, no?

In the event you've never seen it that way, you might want to take a look at "Fresh Squeeze," a technically stunning drone video by Robert McIntosh, the camera flits through the tiniest spaces, navigates sharp corners and avoids obstacles to capture some truly gorgeous footage of Venice Beach.

According to LAist, the project was filmed on a GoPro Hero 4, which was stripped down to help it fit through small enclosures, then attached to a micro quadcopter.

The footage was also stabilized using ReelSteady from Adobe AfterEffects.

Anyway, BRB, going to Venice Beach to peer through some wheels.
