If you didn't use much photoshop for this one you realy have an exquisite eye. I flew several the friendly skies between these two airports, but never spoted such a awesome blue cotton sky.

Posted by jwtje at May 13, 2004 12:36 PMi love the way the plane blends in with the sky. And the clouds! I'm a big fan of cloud shots!

Posted by rei at May 13, 2004 08:34 PMIt's too blue to be true.
Posted by Boreo at May 13, 2004 10:40 PMThe KLM (dutch aircompany) might want to use this one. Impressive stuff.
Posted by René at May 14, 2004 02:03 AMWOW!
Posted by Willem at May 14, 2004 04:24 AMNice picture. There's a little noise from the high ISO, but it adds a somewhat surreal quality to the photo that a crystal clear shot would not.
The clouds look so fake. :) Like balled up cotton. Most impressive.

Posted by soheila at May 15, 2004 01:22 AMAre you one of those damn tourists that come to Amsterdam this week to see George Clooney? ;)
Posted by Marten at May 15, 2004 04:27 PMWas it alreaddy near the Amsterdam? If you have larger resolution image, could you compare to Estonian Air fleet colours at http://www.estonian-air.ee/index.php?id=889.
For those of you wondering about which airline the plane in the shot belongs to, I suspect it's BMI (formerly British Midland) - a UK-based airline who fly regularly to Amsterdam and most of Europe.
It looks like an Airbus painted in their new livery - see http://www.flybmi.com/bmi/en-gb/aboutbmi/thefleet.aspx for a comparison.
cheers,

(who's actually flying from the UK to Amsterdam tomorrow morning... must.. remember.. to... take... camera!)
