Oblivion can be considered to be a state of serene, mental cleanliness. The peacefullness of this image, or rather, this sight suggests oblivion in three major ways. First, it is clean and gentle, as one might expect a visual representation of oblivious thoughts to be represented. Secondly, the sensation that is induced by the sight incurs a state of oblivion on the viewer; upon viewing the soft, natural cloudscape, one becomes oblivious to the artificial feel of the cabin.

Finally, when flying on a plane, one is oblivious to the world below them. Below those clouds could be a peaceful village, or a warring nation. We do not know; we are oblivious, cruising far too high in the air and at far too great a speed to notice.

This is a picture of the wing of a plane.

The foreground and the background of this photo don't seem to agree.
