I enjoy taking photographs from airplanes during flights; and a squiggly river — which I believe is the Rappahannock River in Virginia — caught my eye as the airplane was heading north during its descent towards its destination of Washington Dulles International Airport.
Rappahannock River in Virginia. Sunday Morning Photograph.
The view from the airplane is facing southeast. I believe that the water feature at the extreme left side of the photograph is the mouth of the Potomac River as it empties into Chesapeake Bay.
Final Boarding Call
Trivia time: The Rappahannock River flows approximately 195 miles — or 314 kilometers — in length in eastern Virginia.
