Islands.55

The most obvious island here is Alameda, with the city of Oaklnd mostly above and to the right of it in this photo. You also see Yerba Buena & Treasure islands, over which the SF Bay Bridge passes in traversing the bay from SF to Oakland; and above them at the top left you’ll find Angel Island, if you look closely.

Coasting.95

That’s the coast of North Holland at the top, with the port of Ijmuiden (“mouth of the Ij,” which is the industrial-sized canal that runs from Amsterdam directly over to the North Sea) in the top-left quadrant and the lovely town of Castricum to the right. All as seen on Tuesday morning as our plane oriented itself towards the runway at Schiphol.

Urban Canals.165

Two shots from an afternoon walk in early January at a moment when the sun had managed to break through the clouds briefly. I’m back in A’dam now with far longer days than when these shots were taken – so you’ll be seeing more A’dam and still lots from the recent US visit, in weeks / months ahead.

City Views.225

The NYC skyline as seen from a about 20 miles NW across the Hudson River, the closest I got to the city itself during a bit of a memory-lane visit to the area last week.

Mountains.35

San Bruno Mountain on the left, marking the southern border of SF City & County; the ridges in the middle right are Mt Tamalpais in Marin County just north; and of course the city of SF on the far right middle. From my flight out of SF to Pittsburgh a bit more than a week ago.

From the Air.45

You’re seeing the eastern corner of Lac Léman with the alps behind it, and the city of Montreux on the left center of the photo. This and the images below are the remaining shots I want to share from my last visit to Geneva by air, in February.
