Pilot’s-Eye View: Breathtaking Thunderstorms Seen From Another Angle

Santiago Borja is an airline pilot who braves each storm he encounters with a camera in his hands. His incredible “Storm Portraits” series, photographed from around 37,000 feet above the ground, allows you to see thunderstorms in all their glory.

Regina Konstantinova — A thunderstorm is one of the most spectacular (and terrifying) of Mother Nature’s performances. Santiago Borja, a pilot and a photographer based in Quito, Ecuador, is lucky to have a front-seat view from the cockpit to enjoy the show.

“I’ve been into aerial storm photography for the past four years, taking advantage of the long haul routes I fly from America to Europe,” Borja told Sputnik.
