Those are some really remarkable photos. I had no idea that San Francisco is so neat-looking... or does it just appear that way in the photo (39)? It almost seems like what I would imagine a bird's-eye view of the town of Seahaven from the Truman Show to be. It's beautiful too how the cityscape of Turin, Italy blends into the mountains (35). These photos reminds me how small each individual human is, but at the same time, it's kind of awe-inspiring when you think about the collective power of the group, about how we built this (besides the nature shots, I'm talking about the city and town photos). I liked the Mexico City photo most (4).

The bird's-eye view is probably one of my favorite parts of traveling (flying). I love looking out the window and seeing all of mankind's steel creations as much as I love seeing (I'm an agnostic, but it's a useful way of describing things) God's creations way up high, clouds. It really looks like they're painted right there in the sky. It's an interesting contrast, going from the hard edges of humanity's buildings to the soft boundaries of nature's buildings within a couple minutes.
