It's nice to see this photo featured on airliners.net because I live right next to DTW and have seen that fountain numerous times. Great photo and what better aircraft to be in it than the 747.

The first time I laid eyes on this picture, I thought what the heck is that! Then I thought the airport was flooded, and I thought how cool the reflection was. Right after I realized it is at my home city airport! WONDERFUL IDEAL SHOT!

This reminds me of that commemorative stamp that Boeing made of the first 747 commercial flight! Lovely picture :)

A beautiful scene - I believe this is the same location as the picture used for the cover of Up In the Air: Music from the Motion Picture
