Wowowowow... this is truly impressive. Magic light as far as I'm concerned and the colours are stunning.

I like the effect here, of small items sharply seen, of a large scene made small. Nothing pushes me beyond that, however, or draws me into this particular example of the effect. I didn't vote in this challenge, but this a typical "6" for me.

Really nice composition and good exposure (it can't have been that easy to stop the planes while exposing everything else correctly). 8.

note a bad photo. But the trees look terrible (sorry). Not sure if they were over-sharpened or jsut harsh sunlight.
