 Really am in two minds about submitting this - not sure it genuinely meets the challenge, but it is at least 'the country', so I guess I'm taking a chance on people's width of interpretation. What most appeals about it is the shadowing of the clouds.

Hellish fast shutter speed, to get depth of image through the window, and then it's considerably lightened and the contrast is bashed way up. Cropped, and bordered, and that's about it.

Dang, you must be pretty tall! :) It's always interesting to see things from this vantage point -- it's amazing how much our world tends to look like a big puzzle.

Beautiful - can't wait to see where it was taken. I even love the haze, makes it feel like hazy lazy summer. 8

Nice shot - that's some tripod you've got yourself! I'm not convinced the white border is the most approriate for this shot though. Seeing the different fields is quite effective.

What a good clear shot from a plane. The shadows of the clouds give an awesome effect on the ground - 8.

Your capture of these clouds is really neat. A nice aerial view. The pic overall seems colorless, not sure if this was shot out a window or over smog or something. Maybe would have to get a bit closer for some bright color.
