It's amazing Paul, for the reason to get something like that I always book window sit, it's still a lottery but who knows. Cheers, NJ

Excellent!
Dirk.

Ah just beautiful! Wait- is this the Seattle area? I´m going there in March. What mountains are these, Paul?


Paul Lara   {K:77712} 12/15/2007
These are the Cascade mountains just east of Seattle. The peak in the distance in Glacier Peak.


Annemette Rosenborg Eriksen   {K:55371} 12/15/2007
Thanks dear Paul. I must look at the area on Google Earth - I travel there so often that I almost get cyberjetlag;-)
Take care


Paul Lara   {K:77712} 12/15/2007
I LOVE Google Earth!
It's always exciting when I'm arriving for the first time to a city by jet, and I can already recognize what I'm seeing beneath me.


Annemette Rosenborg Eriksen   {K:55371} 12/15/2007
*LOL* I know exactly what you mean:-) Before planning a trip it´s such a treat looking at an area in advance. I´ve been looking a lot at the coastline in Washington lately and also in Oregon, also checking out glaciers and towns in Alaska etc. It´s amazing being able to see even cars. In that way one gets a good idea of how a place will look like when arriving:-)
Also seing the remote areas in Siberia and Kasczakhstan etc is just thrilling!

7/7!!

This is wonderful, Paul. The subtle colors and lines are beautiful. I like to do the same thing from airplane windows. It gives you such a feeling of awe when you are up above such beauty.


Shirley D. Cross   {K:140542} 12/16/2007
Awesome shot, Paul!


Roger Skinner   {K:62372} 12/17/2007

What a great view... very nice photo...


John Hatz   {K:139443} 1/5/2008
Amazing, oh my God... what a landscape, you get in one picture 100 mountain tops!!! plus amazing lighting, ok, I bet a shot taken by airplane... even the quality is excellent to be from the fat glass of the plane window...
fav...


Paul Lara   {K:77712} 1/5/2008
Yes, John, this was taken from my window seat, and as you know, it's questionable whether you get a useable window. This time I did. We were gaining altitude out of Seattle just as the sun was rising. It was such a beautiful sight!

Oh, one thing I've learned in sneaking shots from aircraft is that you almost always have to boost contrast, as the two panes of plexiglass you shoot through, even when clear, flatten contrast considerably.

Thanks for your comment.


John Hatz   {K:139443} 1/5/2008
I know that well... I have taken photos from plane window and the result was soooo bad that I don't think I have these photos now...lol... even into a CD!!!


Gary Olson   {K:445} 1/6/2008
Thank you for your kind words. You take many interesting photos!! My girlfriend is sitting over my shoulder! This mountain shot is awesome!!! I rate it a 10 out of 7. Again, thank you very much. Keep on shootin. Gary
