An interesting remark, tv, which I am very grateful for. On one hand, I can clearly see what you mean (and I do partially agree); on the other one, I still think the aircraft--as small as it appears--is *the* subject while the smoke (though relatively big and overall important for the statement the image makes) is just the... well: "leading line". Thank you for a comment that makes me think about how my "subjective" composition is perceived by an "objective" viewer! -- db.

This makes the line into the subject. The plane is almost incidental - little more than a punctiation mark at the end of the line. Nice shot. -tv

aha! I like this "twist" on the theme - I've been thinking mainly of straight leading lines myself... but this is great. perfect composition here - b.c.

I wouldn't want to be a pilot, not even a passenger in that one, but it's a great shot. Funny and elegant :)

It looks like the plane is trying to write your name Daniel:-) Nice shot mate.
