high altitude pics

Here's some of mine. These were shot in Dominican Republic around the middle of the island:

And these were shot at a public park in Santo Domingo (the capital of the country):

I guess I'll have to figure out how to keep track of that.

If the comment below is of concern to my posted pictures.
The pictures were taken within all legal limits.
Your reminders of the FAA regualtions in the US hopefully will be helpful to someone though.
Thanks so much

Guys, remember FAA requirements if in the USA. Especially new guys, you are not to be above 400 ft AGL (basically takoff). Keep that in mind. Just trying to help everyone so you don't get a ring from the FAA or worse. :)

And while a call from the FAA would be stressful, it would not nearly be as stressful as running into the windshield of a Cessna 172 going 130 knots! Don't fly into their airspace, there are people up there!

Highest I went on this flight was 395ft according to the flight record, but I think this picture was only at around 300ft. I'm still learning, so best I have at the moment.

What would we do without having you here. I guess the World would start spinning in the other direction and the Earth's magnetic pole would switch.
