This is the moment quick-thinking neighbours came to the rescue and helped put out a house fire.
The incident took place on Sunday evening when a bin caught fire at the side of a property in the Farnham Park area of Bangor and was quickly dealt with by neighbours and the fire service.
It was caught on camera by drone photographer Paul of the Shelleven House guesthouse who came across the fire while he was out taking pictures.

Speaking to Belfast Live, he said that thankfully nobody was injured during the fire and praised the neighbours for their quick response.
Paul also spoke with the homeowner following the incident who said that he could share the footage to show how their neighbours had helped them.
He said: "I had been out taking pictures with my drone when I noticed the fire at the side of the house, which had exploded into quite a big blaze.
"It had started by accident in a bin and the homeowner was unaware of it until their neighbours alerted them and then they grabbed a hose and set about trying to put out the flames until the fire brigade arrived.
"The firefighters arrived within minutes and by then the fire had been mostly put out and thankfully nobody was injured.
"I thought that it was amazing to see the men respond on the fire so well, because without them it could have ended up being a lot more serious."
