dawn from above

dawn from above

One of the good things about a really early morning flight is that you have the chance to see the dawn from above the clouds. It’s beautiful to see them blushing pink as the sun rises over the horizon.

This reminds me, please go and look at this. It’s a movie by Yann Arthus-Bertrand. He takes the most amazing photographs of the world from the air. Now he has made this beautiful, awe-inspiring film about the Earth and the impact made by Homo Sapiens.
