I am not sure if this is a Antonov AH 124-100 or not, but I am sure this is a good picture with strong PoV.

Thank you for sharing, Kenan.

I saw this movie last year: A href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0424024/" target="_blank">Darwin's Nightmare

See the movie poster here.

Could be the same plane. Well captured Kenan! Keep it up! Gilbert

Hi Kenan,
Nice shot of this big bird. It's good to have that one man standing to give even some idea of the size. I'd crop the lamppost out.
Antonov is in fact Ukrainean company, though in Soviet times it probably didn't make much of a difference.

In cyrilic alphapet is the short AH-124, but in Roman alphabet is this short AN-124.

Kenan, Great shot of one of the largest aircraft in the world. With the exception of the sun glare the shot is great! I like the person you have here in the shot to the right. It gives good perspective of how big a machine this is. Also I like the lighting of the underbelly in the front. The sky is beautiful!

A video of an Antonov 124 Landing in Prague Czech Republic. Beautiful!

Hmmm... Strong backlight. You should have parked it the other way :-) The difficoult lighting makes the picture a bit dull, with excessive dynamic range, poor saturation. There is some flare on the lens too, and the sharpness could be better. Excellent POV and framing with a man on the side that allows us to figure the size of this titan.
