Today, he uploaded a video to show us exactly how he takes those incredible pictures:

I, for one, am very grateful to Commander Hadfield for 'showing off' his view of the planet to us. The other astronauts on the station have already been inspired to follow his lead, as American astronaut Thomas Marshburn has also been posting pictures to his twitter account (@AstroMarshburn), so here's hoping that we keep seeing these kinds of pictures from all the ISS missions in the future!
