The night skyline at zero hours. I used to jump out of airplanes for a living, but I never noticed a curved horizon. Of all the times I’ve been thousands of feet above sea level, looking at this picture was the first time I’ve noticed it.

Great aerial of the Capitol and points north! Looks like a jewel box with all the sparkling lights. This must be the highest up aerial shot I’ve seen on this site>>good job! Do you have any more like this?
