I prefer window seats on airplanes for a number of reasons, one of them being that I can take pictures. Here's a selection.
Gliding in an Easyjet plane towards the airport at Puerto de Rosario I could catch Pozo Negro and the landscape to the west of the airport.

Sweet Peace, where dost thou dwell? I humbly crave,
Let me once know.
I sought thee in a secret cave,
And ask'd, if Peace were there,
A hollow wind did seem to answer,
No: Go seek elsewhere …

Shots taken during my flight back from Lanzarote, crossing the Noordzeekanaal, flying over 'Westelijk Havengebied' Westpoort to land at the Zwanenburglaan. There were 24 passengers on board and I had a nice chat with one of the air hostesses.

It's an enormous contrast with the image took a few hours earlier, but this ridge in the north of Spain is impressive nevertheless.

Minutes before landing at La Palma, it was pure luck to see a gap in the cloud cover popping up and see Spain's highest mountain peak, El Teide at Tenerife.

This is what I am always looking forward to: the moment I hear the engines are being put into stationary mode and the plane starts descending. This is just a glimpse through the clouds of Gran Canaria.
