My favorite plane!

The white is a nice contrast to the plane, makes it stand out.

And the dramatic cloud formations give the shot gravitas, befitting a presidential plane.

They went through 3 distinctly different cloud backgrounds and I will be adding some of the others later, but this one was by far the most dramatic

One man who has to take on the world.

How did you manage to take a picture that looks like you're flying alongside AF1. How is that accomplished?

Thanks.

Excellent choice of framery*. The larger space in front of the plane gives the impression of speeding along, into a future and leaving a forgettable past. Cool statement.

* My totally made-up word. Today only $2.00 per usage per person per tense. Yeah, it's got tense, too.

window frames! Of course, we can't see anyone or any controls, but it is a dynamic shot!

I have come to call this "flying without flying" when it appears I am at the same altitude as the subject. The subject is in fact banking slightly which puts the wings in my plane of view, no pun intended. Another recent post with the same effect:

What a collection. Thank you.

The choppers fly over our house whenever the President visits L.A. I've managed to photograph them a few times. We heard Jill Biden fly over the evening of the Grammys.
