Photos taken by astronaut Doug Wheelock. Sure beats looking out the window of an airplane. The pictures taken at night always amaze me. Thought this was amazing too: the ISS orbits the earth every 90 minutes. I can't imagine living up there for a long period of time.

I wonder what gear he was using. Those are extremely sharp.
