Nice picture. The sea looks so calm, and the color of the plane fits perfectly to the shot. The reflections of the sun are good too. And the angle gives a different feeling to the shot. Good job!

Wow, 5 Star Photo, Just Incredible, Meet my new Wallpaper,lol

A visitor from United States posted Fri October 6, 2006:
Incredible photo, the detail of the fuselage and the smooth waves of the ocean are mesmerizing. I didn’t even notice the shadow until I read the comments. Maybe the photographer should have asked the captains to change course or deleted the picture. Come on, enjoy a rare sight.

A visitor from Brazil posted Fri October 6, 2006:
Just perfect! The water, the angle, the situation, the airplane, the scale...
Deserved 5 stars.

FRED stands for Freaking Ridiculous Economic disaster. The C-5 has to undergo 16 hrs of mx after 1 hour of flight, or so I hear. Awesome shot Rob, as usual from you.

A visitor from United States posted Fri October 6, 2006:

Brilliant! Against the reflection of the sun, amazing color. Check out the sharpness and structure of both water and aircraft.
