A visitor from Germany posted Mon February 12, 2007:

Amazing how low the plane is going to land..

A visitor from Latvia posted Fri June 23, 2006:
Super

A visitor from - posted Wed June 21, 2006:
It is the proximity and the contrast. It is the opportunity to get so close to these aircraft as they come in here. Then it is the contrast of something that should be safely high in the air, here so close to the ground, and at a public place where people are walking around.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed June 21, 2006:
Yes,i like the a340!!! and such an approach is beautiful,brilliant shot!
But only 4 stars because i think this picture is there too often

A visitor from Indonesia posted Mon June 19, 2006:

A visitor from China posted Mon May 29, 2006:
Amazing!!What does that notice board say?

A visitor from Brazil posted Mon May 29, 2006:
Does the main landing gear isn't full foward or this is because of an angle of view?

A visitor from Mexico posted Mon May 29, 2006:
Big planes, beautiful girls, the sea... what else can you ask?

A visitor from Australia posted Sat May 27, 2006:
I want to go this island to witness it for myself. It would be interesting to know what the text is on the "Danger" sign on the right side of the photo.

A visitor from United States posted Sat May 27, 2006:
It looks as though you could jump up and grab the tire! Not recommended of course!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat May 27, 2006:
So low! I'd love to be right under that!

A visitor from United States posted Fri May 26, 2006:

A visitor from Australia posted Thu May 25, 2006:
It would be scary

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed May 24, 2006:
What a superb shot - the way the people dont seem that suprised and the "hanging in the air" nature of the Airbus all conspire to make a very surreal scene.

Top photo Luigi
