      This doesn't even look like it was taken on Earth. Really too unreal. Do you have a higher resolution image?

      Is the sun behind you? This is just amazing, it reminds you of one of those dreams you have of colossal dreamscapes...

      A gorgeous view of a tropical cyclone. It would be wonderful to see a higher resolution version of this.

      this shot was taken by a scientist aboard the NOAA-43...since I was flying on a different plane in the rainbands (and thus not really able to see much, as you can see in IMG-0949), I handed my camera off to him so that I could share what they saw there. I'm participating in the RAINEX (hurricane rainband and intesity change experiment) project, so I'm really lucky to be able to fly into these incredible storms...although it is sad to know the devestation that they cause below.
