Aerial Photography

So I recently figured out how to make photos taken out of the shitty plastic windows on a standard commuter jet somewhat passable.  This was great because following an experience several years ago I had all but given up.  However, upon returning from LA a week or two ago (its tough to remember with the end of the quarter happening at the same time) I discovered some adjustments in camera RAW that remove a good majority of the haziness.

Setting out this morning, I resolved to try Aerial photos again.  Throughout the 2-3 hour flight to Oakland I shot whenever something caught my eye out the window.  its a shame that the flight path didn't go over southern Utah, but I think I got some decent stuff.  One thing I was proud of was that I was able to photograph features that I could either recognize or later geo-refference (coordinates next to each photo's name/description.  if you copy/paste into Google maps you will see the photographed feature)
