Photoshop ain't necessary:

My wife and I sprung for a ride in the Nine-Oh-Nine, a restored B-17 operated by the Collings Foundation.

Toward the end of the flight we were headed up the Mendenhall Valley to the glacier. I stood right behind the co-pilot.

Both pilots were taking pictures and the glacier kept getting closer.

"Any time now! Any time now! It's OK to turn around!" I screamed silently to myself.

Finally they put down the cameras and turned around, and I got a good look at my house from the air.

The flight was worth every penny of the $700 total it cost us for the 40 minutes.
