Sorry I have not had TL time this week.. getting ready to go back to the island on Monday..
1st on the list was to get Tom home... CHECK
2nd no the list to pack... NO CHECK!

this shot was taken with my Sony on our very last day at the beach bar. This year I have my new Nikon and can not wait to get back and take more photos!

I'm not sure if I will post tomorrow so if I don't I hope everyone has a safe week and I'll see you on the 18th :)


I wish the plane was less centered and I hope to pan better next week and show my progress soon :)

I wonder why there aren't that many people on that beach :-).
The noise must be awful.
Excellent capture.

Centred or not, I like the shot. Colour and sharpness is what you want when you tell a story. Did the pilot try to go for a swim?

Hi tricia:
You have captured this with perfection in details:)

Hi Tricia,
Don't worry about the centering of this B737, it's a great capture, nicely horizontal, as well the plane as the background! Vivid colours too. No I really enjoy the picture. Wish you a great time in The Netherlands :-) I'm spending my time next week in the UK, meeting Silke :-)

Hi Tricia
I also went to Saint-Martin last year (on Westjet), and your picture conveys very well the experience. This is only a few seconds before the actual landing. Great shot. Hope you had a good time on the island. TFS

Hi Tricia,

Hope you are all going to enjoy yourself immensely - crazy to see a plane flying so low over a beach but it makes a great picture.

We (I) really expect a lot of pictures!!

Wish you the best of times,
Bon Viyage,
Els

Een vrij bekend tafereel Tricia ,maar dit ziet er wel heel spectaculair uit!
jan

Best regards,

More Crazy Canadians landing in St Maarten ( ^_^ )
Beware !
Always spectacular to see those planes passing above a popular beach, and so close to the hotels. One thing is sure.... Guests do not stay late in bed in the morning!

Cool shot . I might have tried to capture more of the beach, by putting your plane higher in your composition. How to do that . Follow the plane as it is approaching. Center it first for the best focus , at the last second lower move lower to capture more of the beach. It should be clear.

We feel bad this year as we did not fly South ourselves. And we had a long white winter indeed . Only this week, the snow finally disappeared from our street!

Cheers!
Robert
