Description

Hi, another airplane presenting its nose. Last one I will show in that kind of angle.

This is a Breguet Atlantic, a maritime patrol aircraft. It started its duty for french and german navy around 1963. German navy is still operating with two of them, mainly in use for the reconnaissance of poluting ships in german waterways.

I was looking for a nice shot presenting the whole airplane, too. No person between the airplane and me, but of course a stupid fence was still there. By the luck, someone having a lightsaber was passing by and helped me to get rid off these distracting objects. I did add this image.

Thanks for looking at.

greetings
Stefan

Very nice shot with the reflection as a bonus. Well captured.

A small overexposed area is slightly distracting.

I love airshows

This is a nice shot of the plane. The domed nose adds another perspective to this too.

An interesting perspective. I agree that the reflection helps a lot. I'm not so sure about how you've cropped this though.

Thanks a lot MsMichelleLynn and thanks a lot guys.
Yep, this overexposed area is something I would like to miss.But somehow it gives a bit more dramatic appearence to it. Compared to the previous image it is less colorfull, therefore the interesting thing about this image is the reflected light/scene.
The crop/comp..... I have presented these images because they show airplanes in another context. I see submarines, trains or even spaceships in it. Of course that´s up to anyone to create her/his own context.
Thanks again for your comments
