Great shot. But what I'd like to is what that small
thing in the background, to me looks like a plane.

It is really a beautiful photo - it shows all the benefits of being a Swiss Air Force pilot.

Nice catch of modern airpower and ancient fortresses.
I also like the curve on the canopy and how clean the Hornet is.

A visitor from Netherlands posted Sat February 11, 2006:
Fantastic shot! Great backdrop. Perfect light. Perfect focus. Shows all the beauty of the alps. It must be a delight to fly a fast jet in that environment.
