Notes:

what a nice 17mm-shot at Maho Beach. I don´t know where to look first?! To the beauty in the lower left or to the queen on short final? :-D Three days before I also got this beauty on an AF A340-arrival (F-GLZP, photo-id 6437720)

Thanks to all for your comments. Yes, it was a really lucky shot that day. I saw those two preparing for a shot and thought, okay that´s my chance for taking a great picture and luckily everything was perfect. She was posing lovely and the 747-400 came in low on this day :-D Currently I have another photo in the upload queue which I took 3 days earlier when the Air France A340 was on short final ;-) Well, I would like to say THANK YOU to all of you guys for voting this shot to my first Peoples Choice Award!!!
