Continuing my glacier postprocessing in a totally random order...

My flight (delayed over an hour) consisted of two legs: one hop to Salt Lake City (SLC) in Boeing 737 and another one to Kalispel in tiny Canadian Regional Jet.

My brand new 40D was less than a week old, so I gave it a whurl fom the air...

    Go Nik! My shots out of airplanes never look that good.

    SLC looks marvelous from the air!

    Thanks, Steph! thumb.gif

    I think one needs to fly the poodlejumpers (10,000 ft or lower) to get anything decent. Otherwise you're too high from the ground and you also get a lot of frost on the windows. ne_nau.gif
