Sometimes, in order to see something clearly,
you need to look at it up close.
Put it under a microscope,
and examine it from every angle.
Poke it.
Prod it.
Analyze how each part relates to the others.
Other times,
the only way to see something with stark clarity
is to step back.
Put some distance between you and it.
See it from a different perspective.
Only then are you able to appreciate the big picture.

Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYikes, they are all absolutely stunning views of some truly spectacular places, but I'm picturing you up high snapping those shots and can you tell I'm a coward!! Ha! My husband and I were just recounting a drive on a crazy high mountain road with no guard rails in upstate NY a couple of summers ago and I was driving. It was scary, but you really do get so much more from a bird's eye view!
ReplyDeleteWow, those are so beautiful. What great photos. Thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteOh I love this compilation of views from above! It does so make the heart race to see what awaits a traveler. . .
ReplyDeleteit's a really interesting way of presenting the world and a view that I seldom get, since I am at ground level poking through the bushes. It is always a privilege to visit new places, isn't it, a pleasure that has been denied us during the pandemic.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! What is so neat is that you were behind the camera at each of these fabulous places and got the in-person view too. Hopefully you can get back to your love of travel soon!
ReplyDeleteI hope so, AnnMarie! I’m chomping at the bit to book something, but this variant is holding me back. I’m not sure you are receiving my email replies, as you are coming up as a “No Reply” blogger. Please let me know if you are!
DeleteWhat a cool collection of photos, Amy!
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous, Amy. Certainly views I've never seen before (to be honest, most of the places I haven't seen either!). You're right about different perspectives for anything -- it certainly works here!
ReplyDeleteAh, what a great collection of photos...all that stunning sunshine and the landscapes...you are correct, looking from a different vantage point can be awesome. In real life also! Sandi
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing places. New York city is the only one of those place I have been to. I hope everyone with wanderlust is able to travel where they want soon. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteLove this collection of photos. I need to add to my bucket list.
ReplyDeleteLovely views here :)
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
You've traveled to so many places Amy. I love all the great air shots of each place you've traveled to!
