Notes:

Spot wind for this PIA 743 was 340 degree's at 12 knots as she touches down on 06R. Now thats what a cross wind can do even to one of these big birds.

Maybe outside of a shade more right rudder, it looks as if this particular x-wind landing is a good one since the right mains haven't made a full touchdown yet. Indeed this shot is an excellent illustration of what happens when you have any type of a x-wind component - even with a big bird like this one! I also like how the wingtip vorteces appear in this shot. I sure wouldn't want to be underneath this guys glide path if I were on approach to land!
