Already featured on Commons this photo has been used on a number of global projects and shows the pilots perspective on short final into Palm Springs International Airport shot though the 4 bladed propeller of a Pilatus PC 12.
Support It's certainly of a high technical quality and resolution. Nice shot!

Weak oppose - I am fairly certain you missed the focus a bit. Much of the runway is very soft, yet the bottom is rather sharp. —

comment this was a tough shot. This plane has a 4 blade prop and you can see portions of it in the picture so the balance was tough to obtain.

Yeah, I read the Commons nomination. Still can't get behind the focus being essentially right under the aircraft's nose. —

Remember I am also traveling at 125 mph towards the airport at the same time.
Comment. Is the colour accurate? Seems very blue ....

Support Given the technical difficulty of this shot, I can forgive the slight variation in focus - the EV is huge for this Airport as you don't see this view very easily!

Support I think you could have got a better shot in a deckchair attached to helium balloons (they love those near airports), but for runway enthusiasts it is hard to fault the EV (I'm not one, but I did try to empathise with them while reviewing).
