Every time I see a plane soaring in the sky, I marvel the dozens of life entrusted to technology and two pairs of hands.

Hello Simon. Not only a fine capture of a surreal sky, but, through you story, a little mental transportation to some whimsical sci-fi daydream. Nice work, Michael.

Sometimes a jet stream in a pic is very cool, especially if it's bright pink!! Wonderful capture Simon. Amazing colors.

Amazing view, the colors are gorgeous, Simon! The technology has brought us many good things, but it also kills many skills we used to have with our hands! V!
