[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Boeing 737-800 parked on stand. The throttles are illuminated red by the parking brake light which indicates the brakes are set. The shot is taken from the pedestal looking upwards towards the instrumentation and overhead panel. The limited ambient natural light available at twilight provides a good balance with the cockpit lighting.

The association with throttles of power and the colour red captured here provides a provocative combination which compliments the often romantic perception associated with aviation.

Unusual view of the throttle quadrant Keith, and the illumination from the brake light's good.. Too bad it's a Boeing :(

Good shot though, if a little noisy.
