Considering a flight with KLM to Portland this year, aparently you connect with a Delta heavy for direct to Portland and thought I'd make that flight. Full resolution link above each picture.

Flying over Iceland, caught a super nice cloud and sunset combination! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/derKaiser/KPDX_01.jpg

Over Greenland with the moon rising, probably the weirdest place to fly over it's so empty it feels like the entire world disappeared! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/derKaiser/KPDX_02.jpg

A look at the wonderful work Thomas Ruth has put in http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/derKaiser/KPDX_03.jpg

What a beauty http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/derKaiser/KPDX_04.jpg

Coming in from the east over St. Helen with Mt. Rainier to the north and Mt. Adams to the south http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v235/derKaiser/KPDX_05.jpg

I especially love the subtle beauty in screen #2 but great screens all around.

Like the others said above, the last one is quite nice, thanks to the cool scenery in the background. (did you know ? In FSX Acceleration, the default resolution of the mesh for Mt St Helens is just 3 meters ! LOD14 !)
But in my opinion:
- the first one is much better. Composition, colors, light etc... it's a beauty
- the THIRD ONE Shocked

How could such a simple screenshot look so good !? It's a fantastic shot, one of the best I've seen recently, even though there's nothing but the plane inside. Cool

Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?
Got damage ?

Gosh thanks. Yeah on that third pic I was trying to emulate some Airbus and airline photo-ads that highlight the plane to make it look "dynamic" and awesome. Glad to see I managed that somewhat
