airscape

View from above

A view of the sky or atmosphere, analogous to a landscape but looking upward rather than across terrain.

The term appears in aviation, photography, and art to describe compositions dominated by clouds, atmospheric effects, or aerial perspectives: The photographer captured dramatic airscapes at sunset.

Less commonly, it describes the view from an aircraft looking down.
