Gosh let me think that white thing looks remarkably like a wing tip and those small things look like trees/roads/buildings/ a lake/terra ferma

I think you are flying in a plane over mother earth.

Close?

Ummm...

Cessnock, early downwind for RWY 35. The building on the intersection is that petrol station come fruit market come antique shop come derelict shack on Lovedale Rd.

That ditch is just too familiar.

Ultralights, good stuff and a bit of light relief.

obvious dogimed, you found my page, or know me
right click on pic go down to Properties and there is the site address from whence the pic came.

Enter the main URL and you're home, so to speak.
