sunset above the clouds
Do you love to fly?
Well I have a confession to make……. shhhhh don’t tell anyone……. I’m scared to fly.
I have traveled the world. I have flown more miles than most. I have shoes with more air miles than many, so isn’t it
crazy I get scared when I have to fly? I still do it, and the funny thing is when I’m up there I am just in awe!
I have become a bit of an in flight photographer. Maybe it just distracts me, who knows. I am working on the fear and keep flying!
ready to take off
I’m sharing some of my favourite photographs from high above the earth. The way you see the world, the sun, the moon is just amazing.
amazing sunsets above the clouds
I have so many favourites! Besides weddings and my children I think flowers and the sky are my top subjects. I love how the sun can make the sky such magical colours!
This is one of my favourite images. It is so simple yet so beautiful. This was taken high above Paris just after sunset. No fancy editing to create these amazing colours, all mother nature to credit.
right after the sun set
If you get the choice between an afternoon flight or sunset flight, please pick the sunset flight and bring your camera, your phone if you haven’t a camera and enjoy the show!

More of the colours just after the sun has set, it can change so much in a matter of seconds!

Are you scared to fly? Any tips on how you overcame your fears? Do share because we’re not alone! Hopefully I’ve given some inspiration to others with the same fear and a little incentive to get up there in the sky!
Your images are so beautiful!
Merci Melissa!
I love the views from outside a plane window! I’m terrified of heights and have tried to overcome my fear with no luck. My husband has (somehow…) convinced me to go skydiving this coming year. Maybe that will do the trick?
Oh wow you are brave, how about you try a go pro helmet cam for the trip down! Would be cool!
LOVE LOVE LOVE your layout!! Also, this is SUCH a unique post, with beautiful images of the sky! With that being said, I’m also terrified of flying and find the only way to calm my own fears is to watch the flight attendants, who are rarely ruffled!
CAN I COME BE YOUR ASSISTANT. (desperately missing France!!)
Next time look out the window Emily! I have a Part 2 coming soon, so much beauty to share! You are welcome to visit any time
I LOVE your new blog! Awesome work! I’m afraid of flying too – I wish I knew how to overcome it! Let me know if you find something that works 😉
Distraction and Valium Stephanie, but still not a cure! Hopefully the idea of a sunset flight may get you back up in the sky again. I have more to come with a part 2. There is so much beauty up above the clouds.
I am glad to finally see your blog posts, as you really have a way to bring out the colours in a photograph =)
Thank you Victoria, hope it was worth the wait!
Wow those images are gorgeous and you’re afraid to fly? I LOVE flying personally! At least you face your fears and still travel!
Yes I do! And thank you!
These photos are gorgeous!! I’m not afraid to fly but I can definitely understand the fear.
Thanks! Maybe it will go away one day, worth it in the end!
lovely layout for the blog, looks so beautiful and romantic. I love these images of the sky from the air planes. So stunning. I also get that nervous feeling before flying, but it usually just goes away the minute i look at that amazing view from the window.
Thank you for the kind words Ranya
