A place to share pictures taken from above, that reveal interesting views, fascinating places or different angles to places.

I have made a short video describing how I take the pictures that I share, here

This is not a rule! You are welcome to share any aerial picture you feel is worth sharing. I just thought that maybe some of you may need a little help. It's really addictive once you get started!

I was randomly browsing Google Earth and had drifted into Hungary when I noticed that many plots there, are elongated. They have a short front towards a road, where a house or structure usually is located, but then extend a pretty long way behind that!

Similarly in Poland and Quebec. My guess would be that Hungarian inheritance laws/customs favoured the division of land between sons rather than the firstborn inheriting the lot (as in a lot of other European countries).
