This shot of the Mont-Ventoux has been taken from FL 90, flying IFR to southern France. The ground may seem quite close for en-route IFR, and it is. In fact the controller asked me a few miles before to climb to FL110, which appears to be the minimum enroute altitude.
As ground was clearly in sight, I negociated with him to maintain FL090. and one passenger could take this amazing shot of Mont-Ventoux, which is frequently a stop in the Tour de France. Its top is above 2000 meters.

To save time and space on the blogger servers, I use a strong JPEG compression on pictures I publish here. If for any reason you want a copy with a higher resolution, request it via a comment.
