A grabbed photo looking south with downtown Tokyo at the bottom: the Imperial Palace is the green area with the main station to the left beneath the coloured canopies. (BA8 HND-LHR 20/7/2024)
Coming into LHR - Greenwich (BA8 HND-LHR 20/07/2024)
Dorney Lake and the English countryside (BA229 LHR-BWI 21/07/2024)
Gloucester (BA229 LHR-BWI 21/07/2024)
...and just because... retro G-EUPJ in BEA livery (21/07/2024)

A few from yesterday's BWI-LHR:
Nighttime view down the Chesapeake Bay - Annapolis on the right, Kent Island on the left and the Bay Bridge linking the two. Lights down the middle are moored merchant vessels.
Portsmouth - with QE and PoW alongside.
The City of London with the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, The Shard... etc.
Westminster
Expanse of Hyde Park, with Regents Park upper middle right.

All the photos were from my Samsung phone except the City of London which was my Nikon 5300. The phone is actually very good, particularly for handiness, and any poorer quality really isn't noticed due to the layers of glass of the airplane windows. The windows here were on a 777 - I've noticed that some airplanes have terrible window quality - even when clean: I don't know if it's because of being a composite (i.e. glass/plastic/glass)?

Hi,

View from Balcony. sofitel houses to the left and family pool in foreground
View towards Atlantis palm dubai . Family pool to the left, adult pool to right. Looks like Atlantis had a teathered sightseeing balloon observation deck that ascended and decended
Burj Kalifa and part of Dubai mall taken just after sunset
Regards

Some from my recent Naples trip - first, flight photos:
Boarding at Naples was via stairs....
Coming into LHR over London (bit blurry taken on my phone) - so good for the authorities to colour code the sights - purple is the London Eye, Red are the Houses of Parliament, long orange buildings are of the Royal Society along Pall Mall.
