25th November, early flight

There is always something exciting about seeing a plane take off,
we take for granted how much it shrinks the world.
Even so I don't enjoy sitting on a plane,
or queuing up or waiting in lounges,
and this one is probably only off to London or Amsterdam....

A boat is probably a more relaxed way to travel maybe.

Quelle image "rare"
Etonnant, presque magique, en tout cas ma préféré
Bravo

some sky! I'm scared of flying but it's the only way to go, the time saved is worth the fear, =o)

Flying rules! Nice tones against the black plane

I love flying... not!

Funny we should find the same subject although mine is landing and your's taking off. I saw my plane just as the morning fog was lifting and the sun was rising, very beautiful. Unfortunately I was in an industrial area with a lot of junky things covering my view. Best regards Mark

Nice dark/light divide. Very strong (except that top right corner ;-)

Superb shot. Could possibly be off to warmer climes, but probably a tad too early for Lapland...
Guest 25-Nov-2004 22:10
very pleasing shot. Amsterdam, eh? Wish I was on it!
Guest 25-Nov-2004 21:37
Looks like it's heading for a bit of turbulence up there :-)

Interesting image nice catch

I agree.. the world falls away and the sky is so immense it's almost frightening in the concept of it. I like this.. the plane moving toward the dark unknown

you'll get yourself arrested taking pics of planes though! :-o

the plane itself is nice and sharp . . the darkness of night seems almost foreboding . . . nice yellow sunset too . . all in all a good shot . . .wonder what would it look like cropped more off-center?

Wonderful two-tone background for the plane.
