One of my favorite views out the window is the depth and patterns in the clouds. From the ground, they often look 2D. From an airplane, we see the enormity but not necessarily the patterns. Shadows can extend hundreds of miles, and the various patterns and shades are simply

We see beauty, while scientists see data. As I continue taking pictures of our beautiful Earth, I’m constantly thinking about how these pictures could help researchers and scientists get the information they need. This weekend, I was taking pictures of city lights over Italy,
