Preparing to Dock Photo

Photographer’s Note

Modern Jet just landed prepares to turn into the docking station to unload-refuel and load before the next leg of the journey. It is amazing how reliably these large jets fly these days and we take it so much for granted. Years ago it would have taken weeks or months to go large distances which now take just a few hours.

All that if we are not on a QANTAS 747!!! The latest news about the oxygen system and mask on board of that flight are not at all very re-assuring.
Anyway, your good photo shows an aircraft from my preferred airline. Well done.

Hi Murray,

The point of view is showing the details and colors of the Boeing 777 of Singapore Airlines. Aircrafts are safer then before but they have their limits EX:the 747 of QANTAS which had an explosive decompression recently. There is a good contrast between the green of the field and the white of the aircraft. Unfortunately the sky is hazy and cloudy which seem to be giving digital noise to the picture. Have a nice day.
