A visitor from Denmark posted Thu January 18, 2007:
Great shot, not very often you get a chance off this kind off shot

A visitor from United States posted Tue January 9, 2007:
This photo has great photographic appeal due to the way the camera caught the aircraft halfway through a cloud. Love it

A visitor from Germany posted Tue December 26, 2006:
Great!!!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue December 5, 2006:
Clever shot to demonstrate the pressure difference above and below the wing — for those who maybe don't follow basic physics: some of the passengers may have had serious worries if looking out of the windows!

A visitor from Denmark posted Wed November 15, 2006:
Breathtaking - quite simply. Looks like a slow-motion capture of what it looks like when Scotty beams you up... ;-)

A visitor from Australia posted Sat September 30, 2006:
Wonderful capture of the condensation effect.

A visitor from Indonesia posted Thu September 28, 2006:
Wow.. the air france was on 'fire' !! This is cool..

A visitor from United States posted Sun August 13, 2006:
A one in a million photo of such a large aircraft in the clouds. At first glance, it appears that the aircraft is in trouble as in maybe smoke from fire. Then to see the power of man and of Mother Nature merge makes for this terrific shot.

A visitor from Chile posted Thu July 27, 2006:
This is a great picture , its very unusual to see in a pic that kind of cloud nex to the aircraft

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat July 1, 2006:
Coool pic, get to see some drag

A visitor from United States posted Sat July 1, 2006:
It reminds me of a plane being attacked by cotton candy. Fantastic shot.

A visitor from United States posted Tue June 20, 2006:

A visitor from Spain posted Wed April 26, 2006:
I'm no plane expert, but imho i think this is water condensation in low pressure zones around the plane. Water saturated air condense as pressure goes down

A visitor from United States posted Sun April 16, 2006:
One of the best I have seen

A visitor from United States posted Tue April 11, 2006:
I have been to LAX, but never seen a Air France 777.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun April 2, 2006:

Perfect timing and one of the most "massive" effects I've ever seen in a photo. I love the way the setting sun highlights the vapor!

A visitor from Cayman Islands posted Tue January 3, 2006:

A visitor from United States posted Tue December 27, 2005:
What a beautiful shot: love the metal reflections, the trailing wing-tip vortices, and the shape of the cloud, especially the interesting break on the left wing leading up to the body, and the difference in the cloud shape on the two sides. Thanks for sharing! -kaliko trapp
