Collected here are a few photos taken in-flight on a solo cross-country flight on a nice, early autumn day. A map of Slovenia with charted flight route is included for your reference, so you may follow the photos and compare what you see to the map.
If you are following the map, you will notice that parts of the trip are missing, mostly around airfields visited on the way. While those would be very interesting to photograph, those are also segments where workload is the heaviest for the pilot, and this is no time to be playing with the camera.

Photos here are anything but artistic, they were taken somewhat in a hurry while flying the plane, through a rather dirty plexy glass, and using one hand only. The digital camera was Samsung Digimax V4, with full auto settings. Some of the photographs very adjusted for colors and exposure, and all were downsampled for the web site presentation. As always, click on the thumbnail for larger picture.
