Wow!! The contrast of color and substance.can't stop looking at it.the water,the soft sky,the big black bug like structure,very imposing,scary.and the sailors beside it.what an incredible image.

Top Gun.

A visitor from India posted Wed April 28, 2010:
This is an amazing pic. You can almost feel the sea wind and imagine the setting sun. The beauty of the pic lies in the fact that the photographer has taken care to capture the symmetry of the airplane. Although this isn't a F-15, this looks like an imposing eagle.

A visitor from Italy posted Sun March 28, 2010:

Wonderful shot of Navy jet with the sunset in the background.

A visitor from United States posted Wed February 28, 2007:
I keep looking at this pic and imagining Tom Cruise saying "I have the need for speed" while "Highway to the danger zone" plays in the background.

A visitor from United States posted Fri January 26, 2007:
This was the view on many a morning jog on the flight deck, really miss the adventure! GO NAVY!

A visitor from United States posted Sat December 30, 2006:
Great Shot! This photo could bag the "Top Gun" award - had there been one for warplane photography! The light highlights some interesting details of the wings!

A visitor from South Africa posted Thu December 21, 2006:
Mmmmmm - Absolutely Beautiful! Makes my heart beat faster

A visitor from Germany posted Wed May 24, 2006:
Love it! The shape - like an eagle waiting to go hunting. And with this background: simply amazing.

A visitor from Greece posted Wed May 10, 2006:
It's a romantic shot of a deadly machine preparing to kill someone!!

A visitor from Canada posted Thu April 27, 2006:
Gorgeous sunset and the f-14 is a magnificent plane gorgeous. considering a picture like this of an f-14 on a carrier deck will be virtually impossible due to its retirement.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Fri April 21, 2006:
