iphone photography: "bullet hole" and takeoff at sun set

and on the second leg of the trip saw this sight at departure in Dallas.

My niece, who lives just outside of Dallas, said they had a beautiful sunset last night. What a great out the window shot, to capture not only the sunset but the lights of the terminal, too!

We had beautiful colors here, too. I posted this on fb
