I like to fly. I don't enjoy the circus involved in getting
on a plane, but I like being in my seat, especially if it's a window seat and I can look out. Here are some shots I've taken over the years out the windows of airplanes large and small, and a helicopter or two. (Click on the photos to view them large on black.)

I know exactly where this is thanks to a Flickr follower
who told me that this area lies north
of the Kangertittivatsiaq Fjord, looking north, with
Greenland's inland icecap visible on the left. What's
more, another Flickr user took a virtually identical
photo the year before, while flying in the other
direction. How amazing is that?!? |
