striking is the word! like it

kathleen, about 1 year ago

fantastic colours, the lines in the foreground are a perfectly placed!

Lindsay Blamey, about 1 year ago

Oooooh – This is awesome.. Love the colour pallet.. great composition and cropping as always.. The crisp & drity whites are fantastic as is the graphic tarmac in foreground. NICE!

Martin Derksema, about 1 year ago

Beautiful image! Interesting how the dirt on the fuselage makes the picture even more interesting. Were you inside the airport building when you took this one?

Juilee P Pryor, about 1 year ago

Lovely shot. I really like the colour balance in your pictures. Some how you manage to make things look really soft somehow without being muted. Nice and very much a signature to your pictures as well. Lovely.

Paul Louis Vil..., about 1 year ago

Paul, great work as to be expeced by someone with your talent! :D:D How did this get so pink? It’s a colur that’s associated with femininity and girly things but here t sit so well with a man made flying object of great power! Pure magic!

PennyEdwardes, about 1 year ago

Very clever!love the red and the dirty plane!

victor, about 1 year ago

I’ve checked with the art photographers union, and there’s a potential demarkation disspute here,
I’m the airplane guy. I like the way the fuselage does not have a begining or an end, could take you anywhere, stuck with no escape behind those dirty little windows begining to weep with neglect, 20thC technology just starting to show its age, in a few decades it will look as ancient as a steam train. Slightly sinister but as beautiful as anything nature can toss at us.

ChimpCity, about 1 year ago

great piece paul… I also love the cropping and great colours. The scale of the plane really hits you when you focus on the small windows. Maybe it’s because i hate flying, but i find commercial aircraft so captivating…

meanderthal, about 1 year ago

fabulous shot paul… the composition just oozes style….love your treatment as always….flown iberia a few times myself and i’d have to agree with you on your assessment.. although the worst has to be aerolineas argentinas… brilliant stuff with this one though…

Flamejob, about 1 year ago

Hola – Striking image Paul and creatively framed.

Simon Mammino, about 1 year ago

Hey another striking industrial shot Paul, the colours just jump of the page at you but remain so soft and delicate. Love this.

Suzanne German, about 1 year ago

the tone and the contrasting cherry almost candy coloured stripes next to a big bold aeroplane setting….’set it off’..... for me.. :)

Bruce Watson, about 1 year ago

Pick of the ‘crop’. Nice earthy tones mixed with the red. Reminds me of some Photoshop duotone effects. Nice.

marieancolie, about 1 year ago

Poor company Iberia …..... They are in a real bad situation !
Anyway.. as I love planes so much, I like the photo very much ! The colours, the light on it, the lighting around.. A s in a dream for me.

Ps : Paul, I do not understand your sentence on my photo “fly me to the moon”.. Can you help me to better understand …. Sorry to be so stupid :((

alistair mcbride, about 1 year ago

Great graphic shot the colours jump out of the image

Mel Brackstone, about 1 year ago

Very creatively framed…..and the colours are amazing!

Melinda Kerr, about 1 year ago

I love the way the little windows match the diagonal lines. Is it my imagination or are you changing your cropping of late from horizontal to square? It’s a great eye that can do that. I can only seem to frame in landscape. Well done Mr V another ripper.

theurbannexus, about 1 year ago

That is fantastic. Airliner shots have always excited me, and the dramatic red and stormy tones do it for me. The foreground accentuates this feeling… love it.

Sabine Spiesser, about 1 year ago

Being in the right place at the right time!!! Well done.
I bet Iberia would have preferred a less sharp rendition of their old birds.

Chloe Flathers, about 1 year ago

wow i love how all of the colors tie in. I love it!

antony hamilton, about 1 year ago

stunning shot!! amazing colour and composition…

orourke, about 1 year ago

nice shot paul, love the colours and the solitary black line in the pavement the runs from the foreground attracted my eye for some unkown reason, good job as always

EarthquakeBee, about 1 year ago

ah.. old Iberia planes… remind me of home… and you totally got the rusty warmess of those! thanks for this shot !

Ben Rowe, about 1 year ago

Paul you are on fire! Your last two additions are your best yet. GREAT SHOT!

EMIJIZ, about 1 year ago

ed wong, about 1 year ago

amazing. thank u~

Jason Moad, about 1 year ago

Hiya Paul

Thanks for your comments. This must be a bit of a mutual appreciation society because I really like your work two- particularly pieces like this one that display very strong graphic and formal qualities. Reminds me a little of painter Jeffrey Smart, a bit of a hero of mine.

Cheers

Jason

Shanina Conway, about 1 year ago

Hi Paul, magic shot…it looks surreal, the colours ,tones …I had a quick look around for a hidden body, legs but couldn’t find any;)

Antoni Alonso, about 1 year ago

great shot! It’s like a portrait of a plane! and somehow makes me feel like you’ve taken this plane into a photography studio.

and it has a familiar feeling. How much this people made me suffer back at home!

ShootingSardar, about 1 year ago

Beautiful colours… strips are adding up to the ambiance.. good capture.

Karen Cougan, about 1 year ago

I love how you compose your shots Paul, you are a great inspiration

Stevef, about 1 year ago

Thanks for your comments on my photos Paul. Incidently, I noticed some of your photos the other day but didn’t have time to leave a comment. This is probbaly my favourite but in general I love your style and ideas. You seem to make pretty average things into fantastic images!

Cliff vestergaard, about 1 year ago

Christiaan, 11 months ago

I had seen this one before, hadnt commented it yet, but it definitely deserves some more love… Wonderfully powerful image. I love how the red of the plane comes back in the stripes on the ground, and the darkness of the sky in the ground aswell… Perfect post processing!

Chloe Flathers, 11 months ago

I know i have already commented on this one… but something about it makes me always come back to it. Your work is so inspiring. Thank you for inspiring me and redbubblers around the world!

Michael Lane, 10 months ago

Awesome shot Paul! The composition in your work is always perfect.

Casey Castille, 10 months ago

Somehow I missed this until now. Damn! This image is EVERYTHING I love. I was an Army brat and raised in airports; they still hold grand fascination for me. And did I mention I love very graphic work? This hits the mark on so many levels—perfect.

samuelcain, 9 months ago

how do you manage to get that fantastic color and lightening (is it a secret ?) :)

Chris Putnam, 9 months ago

I really love this-How did you get so close?

Paul Vanzella, 9 months ago

Thanks Chris – I was right on the tarmac with this shot… youknow those little shuttle buses that drive you out there… it was too good to be true… thanks for liking this image!

Birgitta, 8 months ago

I’ve always liked that word: fuselage (??)
WOW! This is a stunner for sure….........!
There’s a sweet polished sheen on much of your work.
It’s certainly your trademark! It appeals to me greatly.

The three sons of Prince Akbar of Saudi Arabia were all due to come of age.

The prince asked the first son. what do you want as a gift from me and my people?

The son answered “Father I would like a yacht!”
The Prince bought him the Cunard Liner Queen Mary 2

The Prince asked the second son what would he like
The Son replied “Father I would like a fast car”
The Prince bought him the Maclaren Formula 1 team

The Prince then asked his youngest (and dimmest) son the same question
The Son replied “Gee dad, I guess i would like a cowboy outfit!”
The Prince bought him the Iberia airline!

boom boom look everyone i’m really sorry, it’s late and my brain wants to sleep

I think you have an awesome talent for describing immensity in your landscape/cityscapes. Reminds me of Jeffery Smart’s (no relation as far as I know) art. Are you a fan??
