Flying back home, a photo from Manchester, England

Photographer's Note

Seated at the window seat row 13 on AIRBUS A319, that's you can see, waiting for departure. Focus on the drops of water with a DOF which allows to see the next low cost plane on the tarmac.

in 2017, 37 millions of flights, so 1.16 flight per second on 27.000 commercial aircraft. For the first time the number of 4 billions passengers (a bit more than half of the worlwide population) has been reached i.e 127 passengers taking the plane every second in an airport in the world. Amazing, isnt it?

Hello Claude,
The name of the nearest low cost plane is discreetly shown behind the drops on your window. The letters are almost hidden, but the orange details are clearly seen and create a bright photo from this very dull day. The frame of the window makes a nice frame for the photo.
Regards,
Gert

Hello Claude,
Oh, what would we do without Easyjet? Interesting and original composition using the bad weather to your advantage.

Hello Claude,
Good idea to make such a capture through the window of a plane. Specially on a rainy day like this. Perfect effect.
TFS and best regards

Salute, Claude!
I am going to the States on Saturday. This view reminds me my coming trip. Good combination of the orange color of EasyJet with the grey background.
Best wishes!

Salut Clodo
Decided to challenge the claims that only sunny weather can be photogenic?? ;-)
Seriously, this is a very beautful image for the drops of rain making it look like an impressionist painting, the splashes of orange on the grey background and the lovely frame thoughtfully included in the shot.
One for my favs!
Best wishes
Kasia

Hello Claude,

Something original; not the rain but the nicely framed view through the small window.
The raindrops do add interest, blurring the image of the EasyJet details.

Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)

Hi Claude,
Those raindrops make quite interesting view. Orange details of easyJet planes pop out nicely on otherwide grey view. Good note with interesting statistics.

Hello Claude,
A wonderful example of how bad weather and many raindrops are extremely suitable for impressionistic photography. A wonderful atmospheric impression of the waiting before departure.
Excellent work
Have a nice day, groet Rob
