These beautiful bird’s-eye-view images of mankind’s passage through the ocean of air are available overlayed with the most resonating poem on flight ever penned, High Flight.  Click on the pictures to see a higher resolution image, the High Flight overlayed image, pricing, and the order form.  These beautiful images make a great wall-art hanging or gift for any pilot, aerospace professional, or enthusiast.  Seen here at a monitor resolution of only 72dpi, With the exception of Going Home (below), the rest of these prints are actual photographs of the aircraft in flight which you will not find from any other source.  The aircraft, except for Going Home's Spitfire, are not super-imposed or special-effect generated; they were captured live in their flight phases, as seen.  Click on the thumbnails to go to the large display images.

All of the SkyScape™ images are custom printed on highest quality 13x19 paper (except Going Home's size is 8½x11), which, for the 13x19-inch size, if you combine with a 5-inch mat and, say, a 3-inch frame, will give you a really nice, approximately 35-inch-wide wall-hanging piece (no frame, mount, or mat is included—that effect, where seen, is graphically shown only to demonstrate one of many variations possible).  And each SkyScape will have the color saturation and resolution necessary to render the beauty of the scene, and will provide years and years of viewing enjoyment when properly displayed as any photograph should be.

The copyright mark does not appear on prints unless the High Flight text overlay is selected.  Each print is custom made and inspected.  Returns for refunds cannot be accepted.  Plus, you’ll also receive, by e-mail attachment, your choice of a 1024- or 1280-wide digital image of your SkyScape, with or without the High Flight overlay, to use in your screensaver or wallpaper list.



       Going Home                                  BBMF Spitfire Replica

Going Home (image above, left) is provided by popular request for a Spitfire version.  It is an actual photograph of a beautiful, cumulous-filled sky with a CGI overlay of the famous British Spitfire that was Great Britain's only shield against the Nazi bombing onslaught in the Battle of Britain, for which the High Flight author, John Magee, Jr., volunteered.  This CGI-composite image is exclusively available through SkyScapes™, and the Spitfire overlay is very meticulously done and is indistinguishable from the other images where actual aircraft in flight are captured.  Like the other SkyScapes™ images above, Going Home is also available with or without the overlay of High Flight.  Click on the pictures to see a higher resolution image, pricing, and the order form.

This smaller image still makes a great wall-art hanging or gift for any pilot, aerospace professional, or enthusiast.  If you combine Going Home's 8½x11 print with a 3-inch mat and, say, a 2-inch frame, it will give you a really nice, approximately 21-inch-wide wall-hanging piece.  And, like the 13x19-inch sizes of the other images above, Going Home's SkyScape will have the very same color saturation and resolution necessary to render the beauty of the scene, and will provide years and years of viewing enjoyment when properly displayed as any photograph should be.

The copyright mark does not appear on Going Home's prints and, as above, each print is custom made and inspected, and returns for refunds cannot be accepted.  Plus, you’ll also receive, by e-mail attachment, your choice of a 1024- or 1280-wide digital image of your SkyScape, with or without the High Flight overlay, to use in your screensaver or wallpaper list.

The Royal Air Force BBMF Spitfire image (above, right) is of a 3D replica, a beautifully crafted, 1:110.5-scale model offering from SkyScape™, available in very limited numbers, shown here superimposed over a sky image.  Click on the image to go to the ordering page for more images, information, and the PayPal ordering form.



The Blackbird

The Blackbird is another image provided by popular request.  It is an actual photograph of a beautiful, stratocumulus overcast, with the famous SR-71, on top and headed for altitudes above 80,000 feet, to the edge of space, at speeds above mach 3.  The SR-71 is an aircraft that, even after its satellite-forced retirement, remains ahead of its time as the most advanced ever to take to the skies, and the crown jewel of Lockheed Martin’s chief aeronautical engineer, Kelly Johnson, whose other gems include the U-2 reconnaissance plane and the F-104 Starfighter jet, designed as an interceptor and dubbed as the “man in a rocket.”

This image with the High Flight overlay is exclusively available through SkyScapes™.  Like the other SkyScapes™ images above, The Blackbird is also available with or without the overlay of High Flight.  Click on the pictures to see a higher resolution image, pricing, and the order form.

The copyright mark does not appear on The Blackbird’s prints because the image was produced by the government, at taxpayer expense, but as with SkyScapes™ original images, each Blackbird print is custom made and inspected, and returns for refunds cannot be accepted.  Plus, you’ll also receive, by e-mail attachment, your choice of a 1024- or 1280-wide digital image of your SkyScape, with or without the High Flight overlay, to use in your screensaver or wallpaper list.

The background image for the High Flight page is not available.

But, if you just want the poem without a gallery picture, below is a low-tech image, made with the tiny stobe in the tiny digital camera (meaning that the real thing looks a lot better) of a beautiful laser print of the poem you can order for $18.75 delivered (CONUS), $21 international, or $14 to military APO addresses.  It’s an 8½ x 11 laser print on linen paper with either silver or gold border and matching matt center background, beautiful and suitable to mat and frame, which, if you combine with a, say, two-inch mat and one-inch frame, gives you a 11½ x 14 inch wall hanging of the poem.  Click on the ordering button indicated for invoice default to one of the three proper delivery-price categories (below) to make a payment to customerservice@silkscape.com.

As an added value, along with your laser print, you will also receive, via e-mail, On Top,a digital image of High Flight overlayed onto a SkyScape photograph, which is suitable for your use as a screensaver or wallpaper image.
