Empty Chair

have always wanted to capture a big plane landing but could never be there at the right time or having the wind blowing in the right direction. The low clouds helps bring the plane closer than usual….i could almost touch it….hahhah.

To see a hugh metal flying over you at approx. 200kph is…...priceless. The jetfuel, the noise…...Perfect. I am NOT a plane enthusiast , but it is fascinating to watch.

    Great shot!!

    You should see how close you can really get in some places! there’s a beach in the Caribbean where you can really get close to landing aircraft:

    This is a great shot, and that plane must have been very close. There is a casual cool disregard between the beaten up urban chair and the aircraft. The car fits as well and the whole thing suggests to me we are busy going nowhere!

  • hangingpixels replied

    Yep….yeah plane was pretty could you could almost touch it. Considering that this is 16mm (wide). Jet fuel smell nice too :P
