Aerial Landscape: Snowy Mountains of Canada

One of the most stunning landscapes I've ever seen while on a plane!

As we continued to head north, we passed by so many snowy mountaintops and lakes that were surrounded by a mix of crystal clear blue skies and cumulus clouds throughout the journey. It was an epic couple hours indeed.

Aerial View of Downtown San Diego

The most relaxing city ever by the water. While flying across San Diego downtown, I captured this photo of the downtown skyline, clear blue sky, and sparkling ocean in the distance.

Aerial View of Orange-Blue Twilight Skies

Darkness almost approaching after the sunset. I peered outside the window and saw these wispy clouds and orange-blue hues spread across the sky, sitting high above the bright lights. I had to capture this peaceful, glorious moment before it faded.

The Canvas of Clouds Spread Across the Sky

Looked outside the window and saw these spectacular altocumulus clouds aligning so perfectly with each other a couple of hours before sunset. The stream of yellow lighting also added texture and various hues to the clouds. It's always a treat when you get such awe-inspiring aerial views of the sky from above!

Aerial Landscapes of San Francisco Bay Area

Finally a perfectly crisp afternoon without a single cloud in the sky. I had to capture this quickly before missing this view and angle. Such a beautiful city and county with so many bridges and islands within reach--and even more astonishing from above.

Aerial Views of the Nevada Desert

Weather report: sunny skies with a few clouds in the early morning hours.

Along the way, we flew past major cities (which is always exciting) but slowly and surely..the views became interchangeable with mountains and deserts for the majority of the flight.

Until one quick moment...I spotted Walker Lake! Love this mysterious and one-of-a-kind wonder that showed up out of nowhere.

Twilight After the Sunset: Aerial Views of Seattle

That moment when you look outside the plane and see the twilight sky colors and carefully lit buildings perfectly complementing each other beneath you.
