^Those shots of Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide are awesome

Not from an airplane, but pretty much an aerial shot

The Channel Seven building - opposite the site of the Lindt Cafe hostage siege - is the very dark brown glass tower in the mid-right of the main photo. You can see the roof of the Lindt building opposite on Martin Place.

Indeed. I was actually at that cafe a week before the siege.....gives me a very eerie feeling.

IDK if this has been posted in the past, but its a landing video; one of my favorites personally. Older, but epic in every respect. What a glorious way to land into a city and start the day as the sun rises.

HD and Fullscreen is mandatory, otherwise that North Korean hacking team will steal your SSN: JK

In general, this landing approach has to be the best on in the world. I watch a lot of landing videos, and I haven't seen a better approach. I always landed at JFK unfortunately or Newark.

That is one great photo. I didn't realize at first that I need to scroll to see the whole thing. Where were you headed on this flight?

San Antonio, I was glad I was on the right side of the airplane to see Austin.

Oh...I had thought you just took off from Bergstrom heading somewhere. If you were landing in San Antonio, were you really that low or did you use telephoto? Do you have any more of Austin from that flyoever? I'd love to see my area (north central Austin).

I think it's cool that it's a 300-ft rise from the river up to the mall you can see along S. Mopac. The view of downtown from the mall parking lot is just incredible.

No I don't really have any others and we weren't low I had my 70-200mm lens on. That was probably from. 20000 feet up or so.

Wow, Austin must have enormous city limits. Isn't the population there like 800,000?



This is just awesome!
