Some of my recent from different parts of the world
Been putting my camera to very frequent use lately. Some of the pictures i've been able to take, especially some processed ones afterwards have been coming out really cool. They make awesome desktops so thought i'd share with the masses in case anyone else likes them. Let's start with Seattle.
Turkey
Germany
Alaska
Japan
Washington DC
Chagos Archipelago
now obviously some of these have been shot out the window of an aircraft and most windows have scratches and other inconsistencies which harm the photos. it's annoying, but what can ya do? anyhoo, enjoy the photos.

they have that affect. the only HDR is the one of the graffiti under the autobahn overpass. the rest are just tone mapped from a single jpeg photo.

im an aircraft mechanic and travel with the jet to make sure it stays safe for flight. lots of flying, but the time off work makes it worth it. especially when you have a passion for photography.
glad everyone like the pictures. i love the one of the beach too and use it as my desktop at the moment.

1. Those are some bad ass pics.
2. Do you do your editing in Photoshop? or is there another program you use?
3. Do you get paid to travel with the plane?
4. Are you all hiring! LOL I wish i could work on planes and travel everywhere like you do.
Im definitely envious. The last pic reminds me of when i went to the Bahamas, and how clear and blue the ocean is there. But you have some really nice pics.

you should look into making panoramic shots. I got the program 'pfactory' and LOVE it. I just wish I would have taken more pan's when I was traveling. Awesome shots bro. Keep up the good work.
