pdx ✈️ hnl, march 2026

Here's another slideshow from a window seat, since these seem to be popular. This time around I had an R72 infrared filter handy and took a bunch of photos that way as I was quite taken with the results. The effect is about the closest thing you can get to a photo from space without actually going to space (which is still way too expensive). If you'd rather look at some actual space photos, NASA has a whole Flickr photoset of Artemis II images for your perusal, and of course the Curiosity and Perseverance rovers are still driving around on Mars. Those links go to their Raw Images pages, where new photos are autoposted as they come in.

There are also a few airquote-normal photos here, and the whole set is in chronological order except for the very first one, so the first few after that show a misty, foggy, damp early morning here in the Northwest, but it doesn't stay that way for long.
