Aerial view of the florida gulf coast at nightfall

I took my new Canon 5D Mark III flying this week.  I didn’t see any spectacular cloud formations or sunsets over snow covered peaks.  The weather was benign.  This is a photo of the Florida gulf coast, just east of Tampa.  A clear winter night in southern sky — the perfect place to test my new camera.  We are headed west, flying from Orlando to San Francisco.  The dark black area photo is the Gulf of Mexico.   Look at the upper right corner of the frame.  That faint orange glow is the  fading light of sunset.

I’ve been carrying a DSLR on every trip I’ve flown since 2005.  During an average year I fly around 800 hours.   With the Mark3, I am confidant that I’ll be able to capture views that have never been photographed before.  The excellent high ISO performance of the Mark3 is going to allow me to get photos when the sky looks the most beautiful, right before dawn and slightly after sunset.  With previous cameras it was impossible to capture these low-light cloudscapes.

Keep checking back.  As time goes on I hope to bring you some spectacular views.
