The view from on high

Somebody had fun. Here's a series of 67 photos of Manhattan taken from the air. Most are from earlier this month, though a few are from as long ago as 2008. Some get up close and personal to well-known skyscrapers. Alas, in this format most photos are too big to be seen on my computer screen in their entirety. I'm not quite sure why these great images are on the Denver Post website.

A handful of the photos in a size I can handle.

Artist James Dive used images from Google Earth and some photo manipulations to create overhead images of Biblical events. This page contains a handful: Garden of Eden (with Belgium as a stand-in), Noah's Ark on Mount Ararat, Parting of the Red Sea, and the Crucifixion of Jesus.
