Remark Photographer
N9323Z / 483514/F/U (cn 32155) I was told this shot looks almost like a fine art painting... and yes, I guess the smoke on the background provided an excellent backdrop for her shiny fuselage... [Canon 40D, Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L].

Fabulous shot Guilherme; the heavier smoke behind the nose and the glint on the tail is the icing on the cake.

Great shot of a gorgeous old bird. I love the composition... she's in the sun, her skin is shining, all set against a dark cloudy background.
