A short flight over the Pyrenees
24th November 2007
<-- Index | Showing 1-11 of 11 pictures | Index -->
In June2007 I went to the airfield at St Girons in Ariege and took a promenade a l'air over the top of the Pyrenees into Spain. As you can see, the weather was not especially kind. Once high up the turbulence was appalling in the southerly gale that rose and fell over the summits. It was a lively experience for one who suffers from vertigo and the little Robin plane was hardly the most stable of platforms to take photographs from.
