Whenever I hear the name Dornier I think of early flying boats. Dornier was established in Germany, only a dozen years after Orville and Wilbur Wright first flew their plane at Kittyhawk, North Carolina, and figured prominently during WWI. Quite an accomplishment to design and build moderate-range aircraft considering the Wright's first flight covered only 36.6 meters (120 feet) for a thrilling 12 seconds, after less than a couple decades. Great detail and focus on this image, C. Outstanding for the long focal length necessary to capture it.

Blue skies, smiling on me, nothing but blue skies, do I see.....with the exception of the patrol plane SEA.
Colors all blend so nicely.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

There's even a face in the window in the blue stripe, just right of the prop, looking out and down.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
