Point Loma from the Air

San Diego CA

I kept my camera in my lap on this mornings flight in order to take some shots of Avalon and Catalina Island since the day looked clear. The pilot took an unusual course and flew directly over the island instead of the usual 20 miles east of it, so no pictures of Catalina. Unfortunate as it was crystal clear today. Here is a takeoff shot of San Diego Bay. Not the clearest of shots due to the standard poor quality of passenger windows.

This is a great shot for me. And it brings back lots of memories of all the times I have flown in and out of the SD airport. Not much anymore (though I leave Thursday). Lovely lighting here and it is very clear for SD.

Nice shot,you have my sympathy.I used to do weekly San Diego to Chicago for over 2 years.
The best part was always flying home and arriving at or around sunset in San Diego.

Looks to be a LHA, but I can't make out the number.
Nice view.
