I Just Can't Get Enough!
Gustavo Barbosa Ivo of Campinas, SP (Brazile)
A sunrise from the cockpit of an Embraer 190 from Azul Brazilian Airlines. The HUD gives a special touch to the scenario! It was a Sony camera, and there wasn't any kind of digital manipulation, only size reduction.

Sunset Over Palomar
Keith Cleversley of Cardiff by the Sea, CA
For some reason, my Skycatcher makes hopping in and taking off to catch stunning sunsets like these so within reach. KCRQ is somewhere underneath the marine layer that's slinking in as I revel from 5,500 feet. This photo is straight from my iPhone 4, shooting in HDR mode, with PhotoWizard to sharpen it. (HDR mode takes three photos at once and combines them into a single photo.)
