My neighbor, Elliot, has been training to get his pilot's license so one November afternoon, he took me up in his plane to show me around the Lake Tahoe area. It was difficult to photograph with the glare from the plane's windows, but I got some cool shots of the lake, Tahoe Keys, Heavenly, and the surrounding area. Thank you for the awesome tour from the sky, Elliot!
