Such detail on ultra-high speed and composition makes this one the the best ariels i've seen in a good long while. you can feel the air pulsate.

A visitor from Germany posted Tue April 1, 2008:
Great shot ... very impressive !!!

Awesome PICTURE!!!! IS that the Macedonian flag on the tail of the plane

A visitor from Canada posted Tue December 12, 2006:
Fantastic photo, most photographers get focused on the airplane and forget about the water...this shows the action just perfectly. Light is perfect. Very good shot!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue November 21, 2006:
The colours are very nice and capture a very dramatic shot

A visitor from United States posted Tue October 3, 2006:
The color of the photo is fantastic. The setting (rising?) sun creates the perfect reddish hue and combines with the smokey grey in the bottom center.

A visitor from Argentina posted Thu July 13, 2006:
Fantastically iluminated, the perfect time

A visitor from Australia posted Mon July 10, 2006:
Apart from the dramatic perspective - the aircraft and trees are presented in beautiful colour. A nice crystal clear image.

A visitor from United States posted Sat July 8, 2006:
Stunning photograph... the combination of the lighting and the plane's colors is just jaw-dropping.

A visitor from Brazil posted Wed May 31, 2006:
Now that's a nice shot !! I wish we had those planes here in Brazil to fight the fires up north...

A visitor from United States posted Wed May 17, 2006:
Nice

A visitor from Puerto Rico posted Tue March 14, 2006:
It looks like it's soo much water that it doesn't look like it can fit on tha plane

A visitor from Turkey posted Wed March 1, 2006:
I think this is the fighter which has done gods job.Wonderful

A visitor from Netherlands posted Sun February 26, 2006:

Hard to write in English to express what I'd like to say in Italian! Great pic, great timing, great details! Lot of luck to be there at the moment...mmm...but where you were? Please, tell us! complimenti Alfredo

A visitor from United States posted Mon January 16, 2006:
Looks like the photographer may have gotten wet! Great close up of this workhorse of firefighting. These guys fly tree level in nearly a landing configuration to get the water on the fires. Everyone one of these pilots is a hero and their aircraft is their trusty stallion. Great shot!

A visitor from Germany posted Mon January 16, 2006:
Its an incredible shot, love it!!!

A visitor from Hungary posted Mon January 16, 2006:

A visitor from South Africa posted Sun January 15, 2006:
Great lighting, great action ..did Alfredo get wet !

A visitor from Netherlands posted Sun January 15, 2006:
Fantastic! Due respect for al pilots, but the guys on firefighting aircraft have real guts and skill, maneuvering these big heavily laden beasts into the tightest corners and pinpointing their drops at very low level. High quality and dramatic picture. Very well done Alfredo!!

A visitor from Austria posted Sun January 15, 2006:
What a stunning sight!!!

Excellent....

A visitor from Germany posted Sun January 15, 2006:
Massive!!! Great...........uhmmmm yes great!! It seems as there is more water coming out than the plane can hold. Brilliant shot!
