Description
On my recent media trip to the U.S. we filmed motocross champion Chad Reed for a couple of days. . . Here he and his wife (and dog) were flying back to San Diego from Denver. . . . The sunset backdrop caught my attention and I took a few shots which weren't part of my brief.Related content

It was great to get an o/s photo gig!

When I saw it I had to take the shot, even though I was on assignment and rushing to get to another airport for a flight.

Super shot! And there's a motorsport reference as well. What could be better...?

I sure wouldn't want to have to
take off into that foreboding sky!

They had an easy trip apparently.

Even so, it LOOKS scary!

Not to criticize your work, because most, if not all is great, but I've noticed most of your photos are very grainy.
What is the ISO you take the majority of your photos with?

This shot was taken on film and scanned. I always lose resolution in the scanning process.

Yep, I guess the scanner would cause that. Overall your work is awesome, so don't let my comment make you think otherwise.

Thanks. I was photographing the sportsman departing on the plane for a magazine article - then I saw that great sky as a backdrop . . .

Not usually. That was a gig that came out of the blue. . . I wouldn't mind getting more of them. . . I'm generally landscape / portrait / glamour / wedding.

The clouds look so foreboding. Like all in that plane around about to meet with their destinies on some level

Surprisingly they actually made it to San Diego in one piece.

What can I say. My grandaughter woke up from her nap as I was viewing it. I didn't realize it yet. Then the next thing I hear is, "Plane!"

LOL. . . I hoped she liked the sunset too.

She just kept pointing and saying, "Plane!" rather emphatically. She flew with her folks to Hawaii in August to visit her other grandparents. So jet liners are within her field of personal experience.
I'm sure it was the sunset, though, that made her repeat it 8 times instead of just 4.

I'm very glad to hear that. . . I guess a plane trip is pretty amazing to a young kid.

What don't you like about planes?

It ruined a perfectly good photo!
*L*... don't like airplane photos, big cruise ships, or anything like that! Those kinds of machines are just for traveling and not photographing! ( At least for me! ...i know people that collect boat and airplane photos, but i still don't get it! )
