HaikuSkyWatch - It's a bird ... a plane ... Sigh!

Make Time for Small Reflections
Click for Haiku SkyWatch Friday at Happily Retired Gal
Haiku Friday#136 & SkyWatch#48
This is ... HaikuFriday#135-SkyWatch#49
Outside my back door
I look up to see airplanes.
Occasionally ...

I take time to walk
upstairs with my camera
for a birds-eye view.

Planes fly overhead
often enough for the birds

to accept the fact.

A great capture! Not fond of wires, generally, but they work well here. Love the juxtaposition of the fixed wing versus flex wings...

Cool planes shots.

Nicole said...

Cool shots!
It's sort of amazing to see them so close and scary at the same time.
Especially when they look as big as a bird :)

Great job, storyteller! Collages are your thing this week! :)

George said...

Great captures of the planes. I like both of your collages.

Misty DawnS said...

I would like to be on a plane right now...

Dianne said...

I really like these shots. The lines and the phone poles just work with the birds and the plane

Pamela said...

I recognize the crow, the pigeon
but I can't tell you what that other bird is (United? Delta?)

Martha said...

Great plan shots. We live near the Orlando airport, and drive by frequently. Many flights pass over the toll road to land, I always hope to be at the right place at the right time to get the perfect picture of a plane as it passes in front of my car... but that means using my camera while driving which my 12 year old frowns upon!
