Hello John,

Very good tribute!
Give them wings - and let them fly...

Hello John.
Apart from being a sensitive memorial to the dead and their loved ones, this is a very fine photo. Well timed to catch the plane in the opposite corner to the sculpted human face. Great angle of view and superb sharpness. I have been following all the reports of the catastrophe with great interest and sadness. I often think of such things, as I do quite a lot of flying. It can happen to any of us; but life goes on.
Regards,
Andrew

Escogiste muy bien la foto para homenajear las victimas de ese fatídico accidente. Un buitre con piernas de hombre con una ala rota... Prestes a empezar a volar...
Una bella composición, que muestra bien la belleza de la escultura.

Hola amigo,
La vida cada día nos demuestra los frágiles que somos, a la vuelta de la esquina podemos encontrar la desgracia y parece que muchas veces no somos conscientes de ello, es horrible cuando pasan estas cosas, cada vez más frecuentes, cada vez más dolorosas, espero que sea la última.
Saludos
