Bern from the air


I was lucky enough to be on a flight last week that flew over Bern at low altitude - the sky was clear and I was able to capture this view, showing Bern, the alpine foothills and the Bernese Oberland alps, as well as the snaking loop of river Aare in the bottom right hand corner. By following the river round to the loop, you can pick out the medieval part of Bern (compare with this post). The pic is looking due south.

It's a little blurry, i hardly ever get sharp ground pics from the air because of the high speed of flight and the relative tinyness of the subject, grateful for any tips..
