Launching

[Papa]

I shot this at Minneapolis airport after facing many obstacles. mainly because of stupidity and unableness to keep myself busy enough to wait for planes. I have a bit of the story on my dev art. But i'm to lazy to put it up here.
I like the photo tho.


I rly mainly wanted to convey the closeness of it. Plus i thought the scratches and stuff on the bottom were cool.

Hmm.. Were you zoomed a good bit, or were you really that close? Either way, that's a nice shot!

[snap]

it's probably a crop, camb.
i really like it, cloudless sky and all. looks like a giant bird. very sharp, too, which is always good (duh).

haha thanks for corretcing me jeff.

Actually Guys It isn't a crop at ALL. I cropped off about 50 pixels from the top and 10 from the bottom, but aside from that, that is how close i was. I was zoomed in, but it really wasn't actually that far as I used a 18 - 55mm lens.

Yes it was really that close to me. I found a spot right next to the runway (that isn't at the airport), the planes come really low next to this GIANT hill, and if you stand at the top of the hill they are litterally no more than 30 - 40 ft above you.

PS.. It wasn't actually a big bird, I was standing at the runway where they land the puddle jumpers. It carried about 10 rows of passengers...Really tiny lol.

Thank you for your comments
