The Las Vegas Strip from the Air and at Night

Ok, photographs out of the window of an airplane probably aren’t the greatest photographs ever. You have a plastic window in the way, the plane is bouncy, people often are just using their phone.

I was returning from a trip to Oregon when we had a stop in Las Vegas. I had one of my big cameras with me and I was able to get a few photographs. There is a little bit of motion blur on the surrounding lights but the Vegas strip is surprisingly sharp.

Maybe someday I’ll have a helicopter! I doubt that but I am sure that is a better way to get these kind of photographs. That or drones. In the mean time maybe I’ll just be sure to have my Canon camera ready.

And these photographs are good enough for a Facebook cover photo!
