Great collection, if only flying wasn’t so expensive, I would be in the air taking aerial photos all day long! The perspective is so different!
Great shots, I now understand why airports are so busy, and why traffic is so bad.

You really should credit the photographers in these articles whenever possible. You will notice that many of the places that you link to such as The Big Picture always credit the person that took the photo. I know it isn’t always possible to find the name but as it is there doesn’t seem to be any effort to credit the person.
A lot of these look like they were taken from the “Earth From Above” book — an amazing book. Never get tired of it, year after year. Highly recommend you browse this site and if you are into fantastic aerials, get the book(s)… http://www.earthfromabove.com/
Excellent shot’s, the scope of variety here is also great to see. Show’s our planet in all it’s beauty. Hope we keep it this way.
