The job of a pilot is probably one of the most incredible jobs out there. They have the opportunity to have an overview of the world from above and see nature in all its glory. Santiago Borja Lopez, an Ecuador-based pilot who works for Ecuador Airlines, makes the most of it. 

Whenever he’s off-duty, he dedicates that time to capture magnificent sights he witnesses from up above. From lightning bolts to storms, he manages to capture it beautifully and the pictures are breathtaking.
