Manhattan from the air, New York - USA

This view never gets old.

When I fly to New York it’s usually a long haul flight so I get an isle seat. On this occasion I was flying from Miami to New York La Guardia so I got a window seat. As we were flying from the south I guessed that the best view would be on the left so I requested an A-seat. Yes, I think about these sort of things.

While it was a slightly overcast morning I could still make out most of the landmarks of Manhattan, with the most prominent in this shot being the Empire State Building and Central Park.
