Here’s a shitty photo of an airplane wing, shot through a dirty, scratched window with a point-and-shoot digital camera. You’ve seen a million of these before.
It’s also an amateur aerial photo of New York City. Jamaica Bay, specifically, during a typical descent into JFK. I think that’s Rockaway Park in the bottom-right. You’ve definitely seen a million of these before.
Fortunately, I’m not posting it for its photographic or artistic value.
I’m posting it because this view makes me happy every time, and I always look out the window like an excited child seeing a city from an airplane for the first time. It’s my “welcome home” view, and it’s incredibly impressive regardless of how many times I’ve seen it before. (Pittsburgh residents are familiar with the sudden, amazing view of their city when entering via the Fort Pitt Tunnel. This is the New York version.)
Whenever I return to New York from a trip, I look forward to this, and it reminds me how lucky I am to live in a city that I like this much.

I felt the same sense of pride flying over Nashville. I was so close to see our loft last time.

    I think the Hillsboro Village post office might have more celebrity head shots than the Loveless Cafe
