Remark Photographer
N962SW (cn 7859) "This is from the flight deck. OK, folks, from now for five minutes or so, looks like you will have a wonderful view of downtown Chicago on your left. I will switch the seatbelt sign on, so please be seated and enjoy the view. Thank you for choosing SkyWest and Happy Holidays to you all!" The captain brought our flight UA6828 to Runway 27 Left for smooth landing. I know this is a damn difficult image to capture; but, that will not prevent my passion for photography as it was absolutely beautiful moment.

Although I may be biased because Chicago is my hometown, I've always thought that the view of Chicago from the air at night is one of the prettiest sights on Earth.

A visitor from United States posted Fri April 18, 2008:
Oh my gosh!!! pictures dont get much prettier than the ones like this!!! gorgous!!

A visitor from United States posted Sun April 6, 2008:

A visitor from United States posted Thu February 14, 2008:
Chicago is always impressive at night,but a clear night and a steady hand is a rare combination indeed!

A visitor from - posted Wed January 23, 2008:
The clarity is astonishing, as is the color. It takes a great deal of camera experience and developed perception (camera-eye) to catch such a brilliantly composed photo "on the fly". No "luck" involved in this shot. A great photographer met a great moment and was ready.

A visitor from Canada posted Wed December 19, 2007:
Brillant photo

A visitor from United States posted Mon December 17, 2007:
I grew up in Chi-town and this is a picture postcard to me! I think it's the most beautiful city in the country, with the nicest people. I now live in New England........no comparison! This photo brings back so many great memories, and those of you who haven't been to Chicago, take off work for a couple of weeks and take it all in. It will take at least 2 weeks. My kinda town.

A visitor from United States posted Fri November 16, 2007:
One of my most favorites moments, not just while in flight, but views in this lifetime!! fantastic shot!!

Paved with streets of gold...

A visitor from United States posted Mon September 25, 2006:
This is an absolutely immaculate photograph. Probably the best quality one could attain from inside the flight deck, looking through those tiny oval windows with a camera.

I've flown to and from o'hare a countless amount of times, and this is the first photograph I've ever seen that actually captures the essence of a flight on a night like this. The Chicagoland area in all of it's grace, on one cold, crisp december night!!

Good job!

I flew out of ORD the same night for London Heathrow - its a great reminder of a fantastic view on a clear evening. The week before, a foot of snow had come out of the sky - the look out of the cabin window was somewhat different ! Fantastic photo. Andrew M

Amazing picture of one of the worlds greatest cities

A visitor from United States posted Mon May 22, 2006:
Light and composition were excellent. Great still shot, given at night and while moving!

A visitor from Romania posted Fri May 19, 2006:
....... I can't say what makes this photo excellent. It simply is. I love the entire pic, it's one of the views I remember from my flights, and I've tried to draw it, because I couldn't picture it. The city lights reflected in the wing .. absolutely great - that's what makes the difference.
Congratulations

A visitor from Australia posted Fri May 19, 2006:

A typical night sight from a huge town. Good definition

A visitor from United States posted Fri May 5, 2006:
Always liked the Chicago skyline, either up close from the ground, or from the air, day or night. That is one dynamic city! And the reflection on the winglet is cool!

A visitor from India posted Thu May 4, 2006:
Good shot.. the night beauty is captured with a fair amount of detail from a flight deck, which is very difficult.. and above all it catches eyes with jazzy glittering lights..

A visitor from United States posted Wed May 3, 2006:
Gorgeous contrast between the dark water in the fore-front and the lights in the background. Love
the outlines of the downtown buildings. (I'm a
white-knuckle flier but have actually looked out the
window when approaching Chicago at night just to
admire this view!)

A visitor from United States posted Tue May 2, 2006:
The city was completely lit up beautiful i love lights at night

This picture is one of the best pics of a night shot of Chi-town I have ever seen...and I've been up in a small plane at night, down the lakeshore of Chicago too. What a great city! Soldier Field was also Bears won 16-3 (left-center of pic).

A visitor from United States posted Mon April 24, 2006:
Simply incredible!

A visitor from United Arab Emirates posted Mon April 24, 2006:
Fantastic! How did you get the detail into the picture whilst not getting it shaky? Must be at a high ISO setting or you should apply for the film industry as a human vibration reducer... 5 Stars!
