Remark Photographer
9V-SPD (cn 26552/1056) Shot 1 of 3: (see all) Unique front view of 747 Air to Air takeoffs. SQ11 heavy to Tokyo with full power climbing out of Rwy 25R. Definitely not an easy moment to capture but it took my breathe away once again..... [Nikon D100]

A visitor from India posted Wed April 4, 2007:
Absolutely wonderful! the timing and the effect of the pic is just great.

A visitor from United States posted Sat January 20, 2007:
Remarkable shot! I can't imagine how this could have been done with such detail. The foreshortening of the telephoto (plus the tail shadow) gives the illusion that the 747 is much closer to the ground. Congratulations on a superb shot!

A visitor from Uruguay posted Tue November 21, 2006:
Great, amazing, incredible picture

A visitor from - posted Mon October 23, 2006:

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Tue September 5, 2006:
It is superb!!!

A visitor from United States posted Wed August 30, 2006:
Amazing angle and timing, and the hint of the plane's shadow really gives it a sense of the astonishing moment. I've seen this photo many times, and every time, I have to look at it closer.

A visitor from Netherlands posted Sun August 13, 2006:
Very sharp and well taken.

A visitor from Belgium posted Sat July 29, 2006:
How did you manage to take such a breathtaking photo?

A visitor from United States posted Wed June 14, 2006:
Another masterpiece by Sam!! Does he ever take a BAD pic? Love the shadow and soft sunshine,and of course the lovely beast in such a hurry to soar.

A visitor from United States posted Thu May 25, 2006:
Excellent detail and a unique angle. Usually, an airplane at this degree of climb is photographed from the side or behind.

A visitor from Pakistan posted Wed May 24, 2006:
Great Pic...good job.Amazing...i love it. Ameer jan Baloch

A visitor from United States posted Wed May 24, 2006:

Amazing view, seen very few like it

A visitor from United States posted Sun February 19, 2006:
You can really feel the grace of this large beast. If I was in your perpective though I would be plenty nervous. Pucker factor, high!

A visitor from Germany posted Sun February 12, 2006:
It is beyond belief!!!! Normally, I'm free of giddiness but this time even a picture makes my head swim!!! No doubt, this one gets 5 stars. Everything else would be unworthily. Really, no words...

A visitor from United States posted Thu February 9, 2006:
This is one of the most unique perspectives I've ever seen of an aircraft taking off. The fact that it's a gorgeous 747 makes this shot even better!

A visitor from United States posted Mon January 23, 2006:
