a sort of a visual poem, starting with this picture.

People who fly through the sky all the time with no sense of wonder baffle me. Sometimes, I sleep or read or talk. Sometimes the clouds block any view, or the sky is clear. But sometimes there are wondrous cloudscapes to look at.

Wow, spectacular picture! I've tried taking pictures out plane windows, but never had one turn out like that.

I never get tired of looking at the clouds when I fly. What really ticks me off is when the people in the window seats not only show no interest in looking out the window but immediately pull down the window shade so NOBODY can seen out.

Pretty - I inevitably take a picture or two out the window when I fly in picture-friendly conditions.

Night shots of cities are also pretty, and somewhere i have a really nice one of the grand canyon.

I wonder how often you have to fly to become jaded to the perspective...

Wow, great picture! I also love to gaze out the window while flying. It's just so amazing. My pictures never turn out this well, though.
