Can't really see the point of looking down at endless blue ocean or White snow myself. Seems a bit selfish to keep the blind open mid flight. Fair enough on coming in to land when it can be interesting, but not during the flight.
You mean flying over the snow-laden alps or Greenland with the mountain peaks and glaciers doesn't interest you? Wow! Fascinates me.
