Major airports are technically 24/7, but there is a time when it drops off to a trickle. This period is approximately from 2:00a thru 5:00a, a three hour window when almost nothing is happening.
The keyword is "almost". Cargo flights still drop on in, as does the occasional late arrival. It is also the time when maintenance crews do their test runs of engines they may have wrenched on. But for the most part, this "after hours" period is a moment of dead calm and uncanny silence. so when a plane moves on the field, it is invariable the only one doing so, and it very easily stands out.
As does this -800 on the night I took this. An American Airlines maintenance crew is running an engine on this 737 which has been worked on. The fact that it is so far away from the terminals and hangars lends to that all-alone feel that a plane operating at this time of the night has.
Aviation is a passion of mine... always has been. And photography is a means of sharing that passion with others. If I'm not flying a plane or sitting in one, then I'm likely training a lens towards it. While I've flown planes for only a fraction of my life, I've always considered myself a pilot. And pilots love sharing their experiences with others. It's easy to tell others how to takeoff, but only when I pass on that sense of joy that I feel of breaking Earth's surly bonds do most people understand why I love doing what I do. That's what I try to do with my photos. Besides proximity, I aim to convey a story or stir up the emotions within the viewer when they gaze upon my work. Here's hoping you enjoy your little stay in my...

This image is like a still from a wonderful dream. Excellent. I shall buy a print in my next order from faa. Love, or indifference towards commercial aviation doesn't really matter as it's a visual delight of light.colour and evokes such atmosphere.

What a beautiful compliment; thank you! If you do opt to buy a print, I recommend the metallic paper. If you do not choose which paper you want, I believe it will default to a lustre. This is fine, but the metallic paper is especially beautiful.
