As an older teen and through my early working years I would occasionally read ‘Viz’ a boys comic aimed at the young male adult. They used to have this section called ‘Top Tips’ purporting to be readers writing in with useful self help tips. A recurring theme was the use of boxes of cornflakes to lessen injury in trips or falls. Another that sticks in my mind was a grouse about why the pilots get to sit up front. After all, they fly all the time. They should sit in the back and let those passengers that rarely fly get to see the great views to the front through the windshield! On this particular day, while I could see thunder clouds to our south, apparently the pilots of UA1142 saw a break in the clouds as our transition through the cloud wall was unremarkable. But looking back I got this fantastic view of the sunlight from the setting sun streaming through the gap in the clouds with sheets of rain from the storm falling just inland from the coast. I once again turned to my Canon S100 (B&H) to capture the scene. From the features on the ground, the aircraft would have been over or just south of Eisenhower, Lehigh Acres, Florida. You can make out the Gulf coast and the southern end of Estero Bay between the two sheets of rain in the center of the photo. Again, I produced a black and white version also, posted below the color version.

These images are awesome–they’d make a great series of prints (do you have more to make it a set of 4?).
Ditto.
What variations are you looking for in the four images? I have more but I’ve not processed them.
Just wondering if you’ve got enough variety to make a ‘set’ of prints. That someone could either hang as a group of four (or three, whatever). Or display one, store the other three. To switch out when they wanted a fresh look. My new instant gallery frames let you store a bunch of extra prints in back. I”m looking for print series to promote after we’re up & running. (I’m “Change of Art” — forgot to switch when commenting.)
