2010 / Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan. The US Air Force sent me to Kandahar from Dec 2009 to Jul 2010. I'm a logistician by trade and on/off-load cargo and personnel on a wide variety of US and foreign nation aircraft. The aircraft pictured here is a C-17 Globemaster III. In my opinion, the finest and most versatile US transport aircraft. The sunsets silhouetted the parked aircraft perfectly.

Chris, this isn't only a beautiful sunset photograph, but probably one that will evoke certain feelings in you as well. However, I cannot judge the latter well because I've sailed for a very long time the seven seas, but have no war experience with the related (threatening) aspects.

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

Beautiful deep colors. When waiting for an aircraft, you could spend time just watching the sky.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
