Re: hmmm

Our pilot, with many years of experience in the area, positively identified the peak as Foraker, from a rather unusual angle.

Re: hmmm

From the Air?

Good photos from the air are tough to get. You make it look easy with this wonderful image. Great colors. Thanks so much for sharing! --mark d.

Strange

what's with the pink color in the sky? Maybe an artifact from a polarizer on the camera looking through the airplane window? I can't figure this one out.

Unnatural at all, but real and credible ...

...through a hardware filter, like an enhancer/colorized polarizer or also with a normal polarizer only inside the airplain with special filtered glass.
Nevertheless the image is really nice and ... artistic.
