I know what you mean about the windows in a plane. I tried to shoot the clouds and the Alps over Switzerland on the last trip to Europe. I think they would have turned out fairly decent, however this was before my digital and the Advanced Photo System film cartridge somehow reset itself and I ended up with double exposures, ruining both events. Pooh!<BR/><BR/>I love the light diffusing through the clouds from the sun.

I think you can find animals in the clouds more often than anything else. <BR/><BR/>Great plane photo. I'm an aisle seat girl, so I never had a good look at the outside on a plane.

I've been thinking of starting a new blog which would capture the shapes on the walls of the tube tunnels. The paint peels, or the glue remains from old banner ads, and they make the most amazing images if you can just stop and look at them for a second in this fast paced city. The other day I saw a boy yelling into a microphone standing on top of a map of Africa. So much fun to feel like I just discovered a hidden secret just for me on the walls of Oxford Circus.Sarah Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11708153254275607308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-1150564334966883482006-06-17T13:12:00.000-04:002006-06-17T13:12:00.000-04:00It's always a beautiful day above the clouds.Here ...It's always a beautiful day above the clouds.<BR/>Here from Michele's this time.Pastehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01740998342727523268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-1150561238343372642006-06-17T12:20:00.001-04:002006-06-17T12:20:00.001-04:00I was always a window seat gal until I realized I'...I was always a window seat gal until I realized I'd have more leg room and no one to hop over when I needed to use the bathroom. This last cross country trip, I messed up and got window seats both ways - what a treat! No beverage carts bumping into me, no people brushing my shoulder as they went up and down the aisle, a private little place where I could lean my head and gaze at the sky. Thanks for pointing that out.
