Back in the day I flew almost every week and my faithful Nikon D200 went with me in my handbag! I always tried to get a window seat. Sometimes with amazing views like this one. Sometimes it was cloudy or rainy – or I was over the wing:-( Once there wasn’t even a window!
Not so long ago when flying back to Germany from Edinburgh I was lucky enough to enjoy the late afternoon light reflecting on the North Sea with a wonderful smattering of tiny clouds far below. If you look carefully there is a tiny ship crossing too.

If you ever fly from mainland Scotland to the famous beach airport on Barra you may be lucky to enjoy an aerial view too, as I did. More about the beach landing in another blog.

Worth getting up early to enjoy the wonderful light of the beautiful blue hour shortly before the sun rose over the Sitia Peninsula. A perfect start to the new day. Imagine enjoying this view across Mirabello Bay from your balcony in Agios Nikolaos, Crete, Greece.
