Remarks: An Irish bus in breaking mode. It's early in the morning and not all people on board look very happy. The warm morning light seems to make me alone happy.
Remarks: What a fantastic morning this was. The weather was great, the sky was spotless. We rented a bike and cycled for an hour through Osaki with the Itami departure charts in our pockets to locate a spot where we could take banking shots like this one. A JAL 777 departs for a short domestic leg to pick up pax and then continue to Europe.
Remarks: This huge impressive cold war relic is dramatically taking off into the low sun. So close to the runway, it's a sight and sound you will not easy forget.
