I took both these photos on our flight from Seattle to LA on New Year’s Day. We happened to fly right over our home and Dear’s workplace. It was great to see this from the air. The arrow in the first photo is pointing to our complex and the arrow in the 2nd photo is the building Dear works in at Amgen. You can see how close to the Pacific Ocean we are and how surrounded by agriculture we are. Amgen comprises many of those buildings you see in the second photo around the arrow.
very cool! you have a lovely place there.
Hi Ellen — I’ve got the coast from the ground today. I love those pictures from the plane. I generally take some when I go up. And I just got a little geography and chemical company education. Thanks.
Happy WW/WT!
..
Great shots – don’t think my camera could manage that.
Happy WW
Great shots! I bet it’s a lovely place to live. I’m quite a way from the sea (but the Thames is just a few miles south) but I love that I need only go a couple of miles and I’ can wander down country lanes. Happy WW
These are terrific shots! Thanks for the explanation behind them
Happy WW
It’s amazing how our chaotic world looks so orderly from that perspective. Thanks, Ellen!
That is scary looking. i have never flown before in my life and looking at these pics I can see why!!!!
Wow, cool. The houses are too small. Looks like a plan map.
So cool. I love aerial views.
Thanks for sharing the clear and sharp pictures. Most of the time, it was still dark when I’m on the plane. If you like travel, you may like my travel blog.
Oh yes, if you want my personal chicken recipe, I have posted it today. If you love it, please remember to thumbs up.
Have a great day.
Wow! great aerial shots

Great Arrows – I mean shots

I love flying over familiar sites in planes! You live in a gorgeous place!!
Happy WW!
How cool to be flying away somewhere….Happy WW!
Love those shots.
Fantastic, I love aerial shots!
Marvelous to actually see where you live and your husband (is that Dear?) works…I’m never able to locate my house from the air!
Fascinating photos. I love to see how humans inhabit the land and the patterns it shows. Great!
great shots from the plane! your home area looks great!
thanks for the visit!
Happy WW
I can’t believe you were able to get such great shots from a plane. Fantastic! Happy WW!
You truly put an effort capturing these photos.
Cool shots!
great photos!!!! … funny sometimes I’m doing the same too but I didn’t capture that much what you did…LOL! thanks for the information about the flowers… Happy WW!
I love looking at shots from planes… Hek, I just love being in a plane!
Great shots, ours is up as well at burntofferings and more at bernies fotoblog.
Happy WW!!
Good aerial shots. It’s amazing how you were able to capture familiar sites from up there. Happy WW.
Wow! That is just so fantastic and pretty cool.
Mine is up too.
First of all, great photos. Secondly, I can’t believe you located it. I couldn’t find my house from the air even if I tried.
Enjoy the rest of your week!
What a huge place where you live! There aren’t many tall buildings though. I live near the sea and greenery…. it’s breezy usually and air is fresh.
Happy WW!
Wow, what great photos. It’s quite a change from the small town in the country.
Nice pictures. I’m a sucker for aerial pics…
My post is here. Happy WW!
Great shots! Happy WW!
Arial shots are just the coolest!!
that is just so way cool!!!
These are wonderful shots! I always love scenery form the window of a plane.
one of my favorite times coming home to CA is the Arial views. We see the beauty in the chaos of a busy place!
Wow, great shots! Looks like a smooth flight…
Very good shots ! I never manage to take good pictures out of a plane.
stunning view here..;) looks like you had a wonderful flight..;)
wow! you have a very nice picture and I love the way you put consistency of the picture, indeed you have a great post! keep it up!!!

Those are great shots from the plane! Happy WW!
Looks like a patchwork blanket
Wonderful photos!
That’s what they mean by “Birds Eye View”
Nice shots!
Doing your own air phtography of your own home, that is really a level apart!
WOW! Your flight must be flying low. Great pics too. I always take pictures of the land when I am travelling by flight too. Heheh
this is like a road map. Awesome! it’s good that you were able to figure out where your home and hubby’s work places were.
happy ww!
Beautiful shots there!
That is really neat!
Beautiful!!!!
Great shots! I still get amazed at how it looks from the sky!
I love shots from planes! Happy WW.
Great photos! I love flying! Happy WW. Mine is up too
How cool to see where you live from a plane!
Thanks for coming by once again, Ellen! Next time I go to our ‘valley’ I will look for one of the family crossing pictures. I don’t think we have any but sure do need some.

It’s always amazing to look down from the plane’s window. I think Niagara Falls and Buffalo look awesome from the plane. Of course, those are the only cities I COULD really look down on from a plane, as I’ve not been to interested when we left Denver.
Yes, my plane flying is mainly between Buffalo-Niagara and Denver International (with 1 or 2 stops in between). Or I guess others just didn’t make as much of an impact as the Falls 
Awesome shots, Ellen!
These are great plane shots, whenever I’ve taken some they’ve always been terrible.
The patch work effect always fascinates me too.
It’s great to see familiar places from the air, isn’t it? A whole new perspective.
I love the view out a plane window. Never have I remembered to have a camera with me, argh!
Happy WW
