what a fabulous photo

33 minutes. Is that the anvil shape forming?

15:03 Maen Awesome thunderhead!

21:35. Awesome. Reminds one of how very insignificant one is.....God, how great thou art.

How did you get the picture through the window to be so clear? I have tried taking pictures from windows (plane, car, train) and they rarely come out to be anything but glare or reflection. This is stunning, perhaps one of my favorite pictures as it says so much and so little at the same time.

WOW! Fabulous shot.

Ditto, PJ. What a magnificent photo.

Wow! What an impressive picture. Great Photography!

Good morning to all! Agree. Wonderful picture. Who is the photographer?

Wonderful picture and very interesting one .

Nice maEn to all.

44:51 Must be fancy camera.

I bought a basic Sony digital camera for $250 American in Dec 2002 and have taken pictures like this out of the window of the plane. Get real close to the window and take a bunch of pictures, one of them will come out. http://www.billmayoonline.us/australianvacation/DSC03009.JPG take out spaces of course.

That picture is over the south Pacific going back to Texas from Australia.

I agree with you all FAB photo. When I started the puzzle I thought Gath had put a medium on here , soon changed my mind.

Bill/Texas, I have just had a look at your photos of the Australian Vacation and they are just great. The digital cameras available today are so flexibile.

Thanks Ian. We had a great time and someday when I have time I'm planning to add more comments and make other changes. There will be an extension to it next year when we go back June 2008, but now the daughter's in Brisbane.

Bil, this is, as the others have stated, awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Have a great rest of your day.

wow!
very cool!

Surreal photo!

Great photo. Was it taken from a plane, a mountain top, sky diving?

Wow, how impressive! Not too monstrous a puzzle today.

There is not much left to say about the shot. I concur with the rest---it's a great shot.
