Description It's very rare that anyone has the privilege to see something so beautiful and so amazing that you forget to keep breathing.

Somewhere over Northwest Queensland, during my flight to Shanghai, I experienced this.

After setting the levels in the Gimp, I realise that it still does not look even half as gorgeous as the view I saw.

Nevertheless, I hope this picture can inspire at least one person.

Comments and critique are both very welcome.

Enjoy.

I even believe you... I mean, it looks gorgeous from here.
It's hard to imagine what it was like up there.

angusfk In reply to PaulaTheRedhead [2009-01-05 15:06:51 +0000 UTC]

Well, it was cold, and I had no leg room whatsoever .
But I was wondering how so much extraordinary detail could be seen out of such a tiny window.

Oh, and then the person next to me yelled at me to close the window

Heehe, yes, one could say that!
Maybe I'll find something even better on the flight back

Ha, go try the pilot's cockpit.

angusfk In reply to PaulaTheRedhead [2009-01-05 15:21:11 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm, could work... that's if they allow cockpit visits on international flights anymore.
And if not, the view had better be worth being arrested for
