Spectacular photo of Moscow at night taken from an airliner

I recently came across a site with amazing photos, all of which had in common that had been taken from aircraft in flight.

I then went to my archive and posted on Twitter what is possibly the best picture I have ever taken from an airplane. I took last winter from a Brussels Airlines A319 on a flight from Moscow to Brussels and it enjoyed an immediate success upon posting it, so I decided to post it on this blog too...I hope you like it!

The best airline meal in a long time

A meal on Brussels airlines

One of the best airline meals I have had recently (I mean, on Economy class of course), on board Brussels Airlines flight from Moscow Domodedovo (DME) to Brussels (BRU). Very simple and unpretentious, but nice and filling. You will see in the picture that it was not a big dish, but rather an ecclectic collection of ingredients: Feta-style cheese and pasta salad, bread and butter, salty crackers, a cake and, of course, being on a Belgian plane the piece of chocolate could not be missed. No dodgy sauces trying to mask ingredients of doubious provenance or dull overcooked vegetables, just the sort of food that brightens your journey...

It's a pitty that on the successive flight to Barcelona, despite flying the same airline only paying "a la carte" menu was on offer...
