From a Window: the second batch



82101

This is the second set of images from the arctic aerial photography series. All of the images in this set were shot from the search and rescue window of an Air National Guard C-130 Hercules, during a series of flights from Resolute Bay to Moffett Field via Yellowknife and Vancouver. They were all shot hand-held with a Nikon D200, then postprocessed in Photoshop.

Frozen River and Ice encroaching capture perfectly my memories of flying over the coast of Canada on my one and only trip to the USA. It's fantastic to get to see them in a photograph.

These are all exceptionally lovely; Snake stands outs, as does Networked. It's a stunningly beautiful environment, and you've captured it very well.

Seriously, I repeat my assertion that you should publish a book of these.

Stunning! I second the book idea :-)

These are incredible have you got the full sized images anywhere? I feel a desktop background coming on.

Stunning work as always. I really need to get out more.

Absolutely wonderful shots again, keep them coming. Have National Geographic knocked on your door yet?

Lots of good stuff here. Since nobody has mentioned them yet, I want to say the first two pictures of airplane details are very nice.

Of course, so is "Teeth", and I like the two "Network" photos a lot, and "order / disorder".

"Strata and contours" and "Cloud Polygons" may be my favorites (ask again in 10 minutes).

Holding book opinions for when that post goes up....

Squee! Very nice!

Thank you for posting more :)
