An 'Oldie' (both plane and image, because I took the latter already on August 6th, 2016).

The plane is a Boeing/Stearman N2S-3, developed in 1934. 8,400 of them were built for the US Air Force and the US Navy as a primary trainer. This one is the N74650 (US Navy 586) and was built in 1943. Because of its colors, it got the nickname 'Yellow Peril'.

PS: image was taken near Zeeland Airport, The Netherlands

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

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

This will be my second comment on this shot. When I hit "post comment" I got an error telling me that I can only comment once every twenty seconds, and my comment was erased. This site can be a bit touchy.

That being said, that is one gorgeous sky. The detail and color of the plain couldn't be better. Your work, Cornelius, is consistently a 9+ out of 10.

Great colour and action shot. Concerning quickshot, yes, the whole "only comment every 20 seconds" is frustrating and sometimes is worse than others.
