* Do you ask for a window seat, even though it's the most cramped?
* Do you check the aircraft configuration before you fly, so you know which seats are over the wings and which have views?
* Do you work out which side of the plane will be away from the sun, so you don't have it in your eyes?
* On a long-haul flight, do you plan which movies to watch - or even when to sleep - based on when you'll be passing over interesting terrain?
You do? OK, let's see the results. I'd like to see your best shots taken as a passenger on a regular commercial flight only. I've nothing against flight crew, sightseeing flights or air force personnel - but this thread is for shots that Joe Public can take through those tiny, scratched, dirty, semi-transparent panes of perspex.
Here's a starter for ten: a couple of my favourites, which I took over the Bahamas in November 2006.
Now let's see yours.
(By the way, this one's had no post-processing apart from the usual minimal stuff: white balance, levels, sharpening, etc. I could see those colours through the viewfinder. Bonus points if you can work out how/why.)
