This seems like a Mobile Phone shot PhotoStitch, still pretty neat though.

I was gonna cast a PC vote on this, just so beautiful, but it must be past the 7 days because I am unable to vote. However, just wanted to at least post here. Just a really classy scene captured very well.

Quoting RonS (Reply 4): Just a really classy scene captured very well.
Thanks Ron!
I'm rather happy with the shot myself and glad I got to capture it the way I did, especially considering that between seeing the plane, considering the potential for a nice shot, getting the camera out of the bag, screwing on the right lens, unscrewing the lens caps, checking the settings, aligning for the shot and pushing the trigger only about 30s elapsed.

These two for me. Not so much for the quality of the pictures as such (they're nice shots), but more for the nice coincidence pertaining to the date and place the pictures were taken. Both taken on the exact same day at the same airport, 25 years ago: August 3, 1986 at Frankfurt! Alastair's photo was accepted in 2005, while Marc's shot was accepted yesterday. The two photogs must've been quite close to each other when they took their shots, and may or may not have realized it. Small world

Just look at that shockwave. Quite often you see the condensation rings but I don't think I've come across one of these (probably haven't looked hard enough!)

Some of these photos are extraordinary! Is anyone planning on entering AvWeek's photo contest this year?
What a stunning image to bring up his 200th accepted shot! JPC is one of the contributors to this website that I'm a fan of. His airport overviews and exotic shots from Afghanistan are as beautiful as his cockpit photos!
