Doesn't get any better than this!

This photo really shows how close you can get at St. Maarten. It really is an incredible photo.

How beautiful. Couldn't be better! If I brought my mother here, she would have screamed louder than the 747!

This looks like so much fun. I want to do that some day. This has got to be the best place to plane watch...

Awesome picture

Ive always liked watching landing planes when they are so close to me

Excellent camera work. This is the best shot of this beach I've seen.
Anybody renting earplugs on this beach?

Great shot!

Excellent quality.

Great action, nice light fall all over the picture!

Unbelievable, im visiting there just to see the planes fly over me, im going to that exact beach

Wow!

All I can say on this one is WOW !!!! I wonder is there wake turbulance?

Whis is one of the most spectaular photos i have ever seen. what gets me is that the people are just standing there and it makes me laugh because it looks like the tires are going to smash their faces in. i am also amazed at how big the plane is in this photo; if i was there i would be scared out of my life.

Absoloutley breathtaking! To see this aircraft so close in flight is unforgettable!

Great perspective!

The photo is vivid and captured all the texture of the plane. The sheer closeness of the plane gives this photo a unique feel and touch.

Excellent view! good close up!

Simply great picture! scary though to think, your sitting on a beach resting trying to get away from all the noise and pesky things like that and then all the sudden, a boeing 747 flies 20 ft above your face. not the place i want to be.

This is simply theee great shot!!! it just makes me feel reeeealy like being there sooo close!!! ok, seriously i particularly like composition or framing of the shot. compliments to author!!!!!

Truly amazing

This is what I call a Happening and the photo is shot on it's peak.

And I can't even take pictures of my kids without blurr. Amazing shot!

One of the great things about traveling is seeing the unknown.i would put this right up there with sea plane landings in alaska,i really enjoy your site. thank you

Classic view, must be noisy for people though!

This is beautifull

Just like an enormous bug hovering overhead...I wonder if the guys down below saw the faces of the passengers up above?

I like the contrast between the huge plane and the beach

Amazing

Wow,wow thats really low, and nice to see
especially the moving parts

It´s very low... great to see the extended flaps so close!

Truly amazing staff

A dream...

This truely shows the size of the queen of the sky!

Amazing, expectacular view.. lying in the beach watching the planes to leave and arrive.. nice.. I'll visit this place someday.

People are very close to the aircraft in landing way as I can imagine , generally speaking this is not possible because of the very hard noise and danger.

The best ever I seen

The ultimate "KODAK moment!"

It's "doo-doo in your pants" as a 747 jumbo jet passes extremely low over a beach full of beach-goers. Wow, this is a spectacular shot.

Ultra impressive :)

That 747 is still painted in the KLM Asia livery...
Its "City of Alberta"...

This shot takes courage.
