Title explains how we normally get home. We're always flying northeasterly on Southwest Airlines... or so it seems.

It's not often one sits mid-wing ...AND has his camera ready ...AND sees a wing clean enough to reflect ...AND finds his window clear enough to shoot through!

Ahhhh... sweet "luck of the Irish" ...AND I'm not even Irish!!

In the "Start spreadin' the news..." photo essay.

Also in the Bi-Partisan Voting Booth photo essay.

Also in the Let Me Take You There! photo essay.

    I agree with the others. It's not often you get a window clear enough to shoot through. Love the way the wing extends to the horizon. I also agree with Ron. You ought to send this one to Southwest.

    They knew you were coming so they double cleaned the window and waxed the wing. Awesome shot Rob!

    Superb shot no doubt about it but I think, JPG Team should clear the confusion between the terms " a plane and an airport" :)
