Remarks: Arriving onto RWY 35 as I stood defiant, knowing that if anything went wrong, I would be history! The aircraft was slightly off centre, so the wing actually passed over my head!!! An amazing feeling!

My word, this is UNREAL! It has to be one of the best pics I've seen around here for ages!

Posted by Wasim Choudhury on December 8, 2003

David, We're not worthy (as we bow)....this photo is truly amazing. How loud was it below the wing? How did you manage to keep the camera steady (did the ground shake? did you have a tripod / mono?). Absolutely amazing! Well done!

Posted by Juan Carlos Bain on December 8, 2003

Remarkable photo of one of the best , nicest looking and longest range of any modern jetliners

Posted by Carl Robinson on December 8, 2003

Great shot. You would have to strap me to a chair for me to get a shot like that. I might hit the wing and be like this guy I saw on TLC.

Posted by David Sullivan on December 9, 2003

There's only one word that I can come up with to describe this photo - WOW!!!!! I do have one question, though. How fast was the wind blowing when the bird passed by you? This is an unbelievable shot! Keep it up!

Posted by Vianalky on December 9, 2003

Posted by ptbodale on December 10, 2003

Beautiful. It takes your breath away to be so close to the runway when an acft lands.

Posted by Gavin David on December 11, 2003

Posted by John Dylan O'Donoghue on December 29, 2003

Brave man David! Stunning! Did you have to check your shorts after the 'bus passed you by?

Posted by Sam Rudge on February 13, 2004

speechless

Posted by Chan Ting-kwan on February 24, 2004

Amazing!!!!!!! The contrast between the white jet and the dark sky made a very outstanding photo. Nevertheless, the skill of the photographer is very important in taking this excellent photo!!!!!!!

Posted by Bronwyn on March 13, 2004

A photo full of drama and movement! Well done, David. I'll bet the crew were wondering "who's that maniac standing just off the runway?"

Posted by Sky on April 17, 2004

WOW, this really is the best shot i've ever seen! Just loving it!!!

Posted by AFlover on May 2, 2004

I bet the pax wandered if you got run over.

Posted by Martin Myslivec on November 21, 2005

As I see, nothing is impossible in Australia. Amazing picture, David.

Posted by on October 9, 2006

Ok...The photo is great, probably the best rotation photo i have ever seen... But didn't you consider safety? You could have been sucked into the engine, resulting in deadly injury for you and a hell of a problem to the souls on the airbus... Don't think the photo is worth the price. You could have caused an accident.

Posted by james.russell on October 14, 2007

Amazing!! How did you manage to get so close?

Posted by Martins Ketners on February 18, 2008

WOW!!! I suppose this is the best shot from the ground I have ever seen!

Posted by Elliot on March 28, 2008

Mind Your Head!

Posted by WOW ! on January 21, 2011

That is one perfect shot. Many grats to such a terrific job!
