Nantucket Island, New England From Air

I wouldn't have noticed it at all if not the unique boat-shape of this island glowing in the sunset. Interestingly it looks like a fish-head from the opposite side, but I was too late to capture that. Also slightly visible is the "elbow of sand", peninsula, cape cod.





While Cape Cod, Massachusetts,  was a landmark for early explorer, Nantucket Island in north atlantic ocean is now a popular summer destination famous for both history, architecture and the natural beauty, which I can sure imagine seeing it from the plane.



So next time you're in boston, perhaps you can plan a trip across the atlantic and see how it looks from the land. More Info : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nantucket
