Amazing perspective James, were you in a wing suit or what? Great shot! 5*

All of my photos are from the ground. The Juneau airport has mountains in three directions, so the compression effect of a telephoto makes for dramatic background. Also because of the mountains, there aren't any "straight in" approaches to the runway - that means I have a good chance of catching the aircraft in a bank while they're lining up. The bank often creates the illusion that I'm above the aircraft.

Amazing... nice view..

Really cool shot. I see these every day here in Carson City, NV. But, my views are nowhere near this dramatic.
