Once one amazing co-passenger told me, “Water looks beautiful if you look at it from land. The opposite experience is equal dull.”
I remember that line every time I go on a cruise. Still water from water- unappealing; landmarks and other bridges from water- dull. Water from land- I can stare for a thousand days without getting bored.
But from up above, the conclusion of water and land looks breathtaking. In between nature-made architecture and man-made wonders the grand landscape sits quietly for a picture. And no matter how many pictures I click, the city always manages to look perfect, picture-perfect.
The pictures are of my favorite city San Francisco, on a sunny day, from a flight. I used my phone to capture the moment. Even though the clouds are the main protagonists here, let me know what else are more astonishing!
Happy Weekend, everyone!

This is simply mind blowing!
Wow! Thank you, Moon. 🙂

Thank you, Suyash. 🙂
You are welcome Archita 🙂
It’s breathtaking image atop the plane, also love the sky view. Mesmerizing:)
Thank you, Vishal. 🙂
I love taking the wing shot whenever I’m on a plane 🙂 yours is fantastic!
Thank you, Bipasha. 🙂 The next time was cloudy, so I guess I was plain lucky!
Hehe, I often take photos from the plane too. Even if the water can look dull from the plane, I took a liking to Japan’s second largest lake I saw from the plane (info was a courtesy from a Japanese passenger) and I definitely plan to go there next time. 🙂
I liked how water looked when I was on the ferry to another island in Japan. https://thetravellersnotes.wordpress.com/2015/04/11/weekly-photo-challenge-afloat/
But my photo for this challenge is from train – also in Japan. The river among the trees looked really gorgeous, but I don’t really know the name of the place I passed. 😦
Cheers.
Awesome! Can’t wait to check your pictures. Thank you for the visit.
I’m not sure I posted those photos… But I’ll definitely upload some one day. 🙂
Beautiful pictures.. In one of them I can see the Golden Gate Bridge.. I think 🙂
Thank you, Shikha. 🙂 Yes, Golden Gate Bridge from the clouds, that made the whole experience really exciting.
Nice pics….
Thank you. 🙂
I can sit on a beach and watch the waves for hours. Water falls have the same affect. Have a great weekend.
I completely agree with you, Patrick. I can never be bored of the waves, waterfalls, and even still water, but I must see them from land. 🙂 I am sure it’s just our perspective. 🙂
