 Out at the Boise Airport. Not much editing except for some cropping. Shot at 100mm just to get the plane in with the sun. Police ran me off so I hope this was worth it.

it's like a spacecraft going to other worlds, or perhaps just flying into the sun. 8

The bg is a little noisy for me and I'm not sure about the 'halo' around the plane? I like the composition and title, good luck.

If only the plane was slightly lower in the photo, it would be better. Well done.

Great composition -- it looks like the airplane is flying into the sun. Only flaw are the halos around airplane -- too much sharpening.

I really like the sky in this shot. The airplane actually seems to be out of place in it. The colors of the sun and sky are wonderful.

Different approach to the challenge topic. A bit of a stretch, but it works for me.

GREAT concept. Well executed. If you had cleaned up the artifacts around the plane it would have been perfect. Among my top picks.

Pity the plane is way at the top, I missed it the first time I looked. I think a different crop would've looked better, cropped out the white of sun and ad a little more above the plane. 6
