Airline Window

We've all done it. We sat there in awe of the majesty of the Earth from 5 miles up and took a crappy snappy to try and capture forever the inspired feeling. Post it here...

(if you wanna be in uniform go for 800 wide)

hmmm those 3 shots of mine are from a very recent trip and I know I used a 24-105... lemme check the exif...
#1 is at 24mm
#2 is at 55mm
#3 is at 24mm
hmmmmm indeed. Well I have to look at the facts and chose your EF-S 18-55mm (great lens, ignore the purists). But have you got a subject in mind? I used the wing for subject matter in these particular shots, do you want to zoom down to something in particular?
In the whole series on that flight there is only one shot from twenty that was @ 105mm, the next highest is one @ 58mm.

Haha - here are mine. Although not a very interesting ground...

Not quite 5 miles, though, lmao!

Wow, I have indeed quite many of this kind of photos! Watch out! I went through my files, starting with those from our trip to NYC and Washington DC in April 2006:

1. The hole in the clouds over England

2. Some will recognise the city below at once...

Now pics from the return trip:

3. Leaving from JFK Airport

4. Looking back

And now there's a whole collection of Long Island photos

very nice ^---

This isnt out of an airline window. It was taken out of the CoPilots seat of an AirForce KC-135 while the CP got up to use the Bathroom, Sneaky eh? not too bad for a point and shoot i think.
