Alpine Lakes, central Cascades just east of SEA

Flathead Lake, ID


Wells Dam and the cliffs along the east side of the Columbia River


Rickenbacker Airport (formerly Lockbourne AFB) outside Columbus OH — I spent my 30-day Air Force ROTC summer training camp there in 1973

That's really cool that you were able to see Northern Lights pics on a domestic flight!

This one doesn't technically qualify because I was parked waiting for a gate with HNL friends on HA HNL OGG, but I got lucky and looked out the window at the right moment. Actually, this is a screen shot from the few seconds of video I captured.


AS at Maui.

While I captured a blurry dot-matrix image quality of AF1, I did run into a friendly professional photographer at SFO who managed to do a much better job:

Great pic, that is Ballyhoo Road in the distance, with the spit also in view. On the right side is the APL Dock with the tall crane. I went to the top of it several years ago.
