To those of you who thought that picture on the front of the St. Pete Times in May was a once-in-a-lifetime shot, well, we have another couple of them. We don't use the word awesome very often. This, though, inspires awe.


New Hampshire journalist Chad Graff tweeted two pictures he said his brother took on a flight to Miami.

There aren't many other words needed. Click for larger images. Vaya con dios, Atlantis.
