Yesterday I had the opportunity to fly to LA for a day-long client visit. Of course, I sat by the window and took pictures. It was nice to be in the air again. :-)

My favorite photos of 2017
At the end of every year, I review the pictures I’ve posted here and choose my favorites.
The pics are in chronological order — this was my year.
Here’s my favorite animation from the year.
Do you have a favorite?
The pics are from the following posts:

Evening blue
Headed home I looked out the plane’s window and saw blue.

OAK to PDX in the clouds
Sometimes, clouds are the most interesting sights on a flight.

Headed home and time for more pictures from an airplane window.

PDX to LAX
It’s been a while since I’ve been able to take pictures out of an airplane’s window, so I made up for it. These are just a few of the shots.
Much of the flight, clouds blanketed the landscape. And I forgot to wear a dark shirt to minimize reflections. And I forgot that sitting near behind the wing on a 737 results in jet wash blurring the view downwards.
I has been a while since I’ve flown. :-)

Flight east
After a long hiatus, I was back in the air today. A quick goodbye to PDX’s new carpeting and a couple of planes rides later, I’m thankful for time zones. My body adjusted to the new time zone immediately, though I am concerned that my body will revert to PST when it’s time to wake up tomorrow.
Normally, I like to sit by the window, but today failed to get a window seat for either flight. On the first flight, I was stuck in a middle seat. For the second flight I got an aisle seat (only two across), but my seat mate closed the shade even before take-off, and then he tried to do a crossword puzzle in the dark. I watched most of the landing through the window ahead of us.
So, no real pictures to post. Maybe when I head home.

Slash!
The rising sun slices through the morning sky.

Red moon over Sacramento
A flight from Mather to Hillsboro took off much too early this morning. Sitting on the left side,1 my tired eyes were spared a bright sunrise, but not the sinking moon.
- Not being Polish, I also can sit on the right without instability, as apparently could all the passengers on this flight. ↩
