I took this yesterday as I flew over Lake Wivenhow towards Lake Eyre for the day.
I found very difficult to focus the camera because of the spots in the outside glass of the window.

Every photographer should carry a small bottle of window cleaner in his/her camera bag. It is an essential item. :D :D I love the deep blue sky.

Why carry window cleaner when you have E2 and PecPads??? I know it would be a bit of a waste but at least you can use them for wet cleans of your sensor as well!

Too bad you cant get at dirt on the outside of the window!

Thank you guys. Yes, but you still have to climb off the plane to clean the dead mosquitos and flies on the outside glass. :lol:

It's illegal to fly carrying E2 in a commercial aircraft.

I believe that the in-flight movie for those flying on the wing is "Gone With The Wind".

Again - another lovely photograph Zaffra!

One of the propeller blades is not sharp - the others are though - could be a nasty case of propeller shake there :lol:

The blues at the top of the sky and in the lake really frame your photo very well

Well done

Cheers
