Can You Still See Me?, a photo from Nevada, West

Photographer's Note

The Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit (also known as the Stealth Bomber) is an American strategic bomber, featuring low observable stealth technology designed for penetrating dense anti-aircraft defenses; it is able to deploy both conventional and nuclear weapons. The bomber has a crew of two and can drop up to eighty 500 lb (230 kg)-class JDAM GPS-guided bombs, or sixteen 2,400 lb (1,100 kg) B83 nuclear bombs. The B-2 is the only aircraft that can carry large air to surface standoff weapons in a stealth configuration. (From Wikipedia) Taken from the ground over Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada.

Hello Eleu,
isn´t it beautiful?you´re lucky man having the opportunity to admire such beautiful and unique planes everyday.I work at the Cologne/Bonn Airport,but all we get to see is sometimes Awacs planes and lately British Airways Cargo new 747-800,which is also an impressive plane.
And the B-2 is a real masterpiece of Aircraft Engineering.You captured it perfectly.
Have a nice weekend
Krzysztof

Hi Eleu
Another spectacular upload, its such a great plane- the awesome B2 stealth bomber undetected by enemy radar! Not an everyday affairs, it's a previlage to witness this secretive warplane. I am sure it's is a very difficult aircraft to photograph due to its wierd angles and heat haze she creates. But you did it so well here, it look so leeks and clean. The framing at an angle shows dynamic and speed. Simply gorgeous, Well done to your great effort Elue. :))
Warm regards

Just a genial constructor idea to create this wonderful air plane. Excellent presentation of B2, Eleu. Well seen.
Fine minimalist composition.
