    I think it’s rest of snow. Other objects in that area also have “white stuff” in thair northern perimeter.

    How about the EasyJet plane taking off from Edinburgh airport? Um..

    I also like that I can see my bedroom window. Even if it was in August 2005. Go Edinburgh!

    There are fantastic tree shadows in London. Off to find freaky stuff.

    Actually, there’s an airplane in front of the easyjet one that has just lifted off from the same runway.
