just a little too close for comfort…
impressive imagery
Wow! I would not like to be those people!
I love you. You are the key during my life in earth
I agree.
Wow.. NICE PHOTOS. I like the way the photographers combines the “serious” jet with the causal and relaxed life together. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work.
hmm
Love the pictures…that last KLM one is crazy. The monster double decker coming in. Need to get there someday to witness it myself.
Good choice in shooting in black & white!
I am always amazed when I see photos of this runway but your photos added a twist to it. I think of the beach as relaxing. I can only imagine the draft from the planes with the noise must be the exact opposite! Ha ha!
I’ve always been so terrified of planes coming so close to the ground. I’d probably start screaming and shaking.
Fascinating photos!

fab pics
I love the black and whites …. and how everyone looks so calm!
Incredible stuff – I think I had seen some of these in the past, but it’s great to see them all in one place. Thank you!

This is so cool. I love airplanes.
Fantastic shots. My personal favourite is the one before last of the KLM plane.
Ahhhh… Maho Beach in St. Maarten! I was just there last month… was able to get some awesome shots of planes landing as well, though not nearly the artistic masterpieces you have here. *wink* Love them in black and white as well.
Looking forward to seeing more posts.

Amazing! All-time favourite “free” activity is to watch plans land and I was fortunate enough to experience this in St. Maarten during a layover to Paris. Photos are fantastic!

Congrats for being Freshly Pressed!
Hallucinating photos!
Wow, amazing pictures!
Wow how amazing, cool shots i love the people on the beach you have captured this so well.Cheers Callie
Incredible–the planes look close enough to touch! Somehow reminds me of the French film, “La Jetee”.
Fantastic photos
Wow! Amazing images. I’ve actually seen a few videos of landings at this location and it’s really amazing. I am not a fan of flying but I will be traveling this summer and landing in what I am told is one of the most dangerous airports in the world. I am NOT looking forward to it.
St Maarten certainly seem to be the place to take great shots. I love the ones where the planes take off away from the beach blasting the beach goers
Impressive!

Cool pix!
This is Maho Beach, yes? I’ve wanted to visit SXM for a long time. These are incredible images!
Really good photos! I like the black and white effect!
SXM!! Gotta love this place!!
Impressive!
I love your pictures and I would certainly like to go there sometime, it looks fun and thrilling!
Thanks for sharing (:

That is cool! Isn’t the engine noise ear piercing though?
Wow! Incredile!!!
Awesome contrast and depth.
Not bad, but do you have it in colour?
Whew…beyond wild…!
Excellent. It must smell like sea salt and exhaust in that area!
Those photos are simply incredible!
WoW…. feels like some day in the past
Incredibly Close!
Amazing shots. You’ve been at right place at the right time. Of course you must’ve waited patiently at those spots for the flight to arrive.
just amazing
Did the engine’s exhaust blew off the bikinis any time?
imagens excitantes!!!… buscar a relação (o diálogo/discurso) entre o objeto, o avião, e as pessoas nos brinda com a surpresa contida na própria imagem, uma por uma, e qual seja o propósito do fotografar torna-se claro o sentido da emoção, emocionar…
”images exciting!!!… seek the ratio (speech/dialogue) between the object, the airplane, and peoples regales us with the surprise in the picture itself, one by one, and what is the purpose of the photograph becomes clear sense of excitement, thrill … Good, very good!!!
I think the use of black and white is fantastic. I have recently watched videos of this very same strip of beach on YouTube. It was excellent to find your blog after watching them. Timing was perfect. Your blogging rocks! Keep it up.
Amazing photos!
Woooofffff!!!!
You’ve just added a new destination to my bucket list. I’ve seen shots from here before but these are truly captivating. Great job!
Excellent!! Never knew it flies this close! Interesting clicks!
Great photos. Love the black and white.
Brilliant pictures! The charm of black and white!
Fantastic shots! Love the perspective and the juxtoposition of the planes to the bathers in bikinis
Nice post!

Great photography.
One of my favourite photographer
Wow.. wish to see it for real…
You be my inspiration.. hehe
Well here in Indonesia, Sout east Asia, i also hear Airplane machine when they will landing but it is annoying such a noise, and it is not as near as you in that photo’s so the only thing i always thinking about you is.. how it feels to catch a picture of an airplane so close enough? dont you feel noisy too? or is it make you feel satisfied because you love airplane soo much
heheh
Cool Picture
THumbs Up for you

great imagery. Cheers!

Planes carry goods, people and a lot of noise. They are incredible.
really amazing …… If i was there means would have touched
i guess as scary to the eyes deafening to the ears. Are the people used to it or what? They seem it happens everyday.

And now for something completely different…
Just spotted your blog on the ‘freshly pressed’ section. Beautiful blog!
Congrats, great photos you have here!
Superb photos. Many thanks!
Wow.Stunning! That plane does fly really close to those sun worshippers….cool!
oh my gosh, those shots are amazing. And I’ve always wanted to go to St. Maarten as well – so now I have a spot to check out when I do go.
Not sure if this has been asked already, but what camera and lens(es) did you use to take the photos with – if I may ask?

well documented !
Wow! Beautiful work. The photographer has an excellent sense of timing.

I know that I am book blogger, but I really want to go and visit this place and I have been seeing some tv documentaries and posts abou this place and I just had to share this with you.
Who wants to ride the fence with me while the jet takes off?
i’ve heard about that place.. awesome photographs! and if i’m there i would probably be taking pictures too.
Impressively fun from one of the world most unique beaches!
Photoshop?
These are all fantastic pictures but the second to last is particularly impressive!
I’ve seen a lot of pictures of this special “event”. But I’ve never seen such good ones.
Thanks!
WOW!!!! Unbelievable shots. I am equally scared to death of planes (flying) and fascinated by them. I would love to see this in person. Really, really, REALLY cool.
hey, is that a current KLM fleet? that looks like a Boeing 737-800! but it looks so retro, i thought these were retro pics. i’m confused?
Wow – these pictures are absolutely amazing.
Great post.
Those photographs are SO cool! -great job.
seriously intense and humorous pictures here! I ove them. More more!!
I wish i would be there.

I love these! I’m a fan of jet watching myself. I sometimes head out to UMASS, Boston to watch them descend en route to nearby Logan Airport. The black and white makes for a much more dramatic visual.
You could not pay me enough money to sit on that beach and have a megaton plane fly inches away. No thanks. You are brave to get those photos, too.
I notice there are lots of aerodynamics going on that don’t involve widebodies, too. Rowr.

These shots are absolutely spectacular!
Amazing set of images!
Whoa, that’s so close it’s making me nervous just looking at them! Very cool.
I landed in this airport in an Airbus from Pan American World Airways. I heard the pilots talking in the gate house about who was doing the landing and the takeoff.
amazing images great work
Honestly, I think it is extremely dangerous and foolish to put a beach right on short finals??!!?! If I was the pilot, I would probably prang on landing whilst catching a glance at all those bikini clad butts and buns! What on earth were they thinking?
Fantastic photos, by the way. Great “positioning”.
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC ! ツ
great tones & contrast!
that is just plain crazy to have planes land that close to a beach and to people!! is this really the way it is? great photographs! – rita

WOW!
I really do love these shots!

want to go here so badly haha!
The black and white makes these images appear so magical and surreal. This place, Princess Juliana International Airport, is definitely on the bucket list!
Nice stunning angles and composition. Great job fitting in the airplanes with the rest of the scenery.
Epic Photography. Really Special.
Amazing shots! We would love to post the 2nd phphoto down at toemail if you do not mind? Would provide links for you and the artist. http://toemail.wordpress.com
