If you want to get to St. Barts by air, you first need to go to a neighboring

island such as St. Martin's and get on a small plane that can make an abrupt

landing at St. Bart's short runway.

Love the sharp angles and the clash of colors. Looks like you made some adjustments to the color here but it gives the picture a kind of graphic kick in the tail (not enough to send the plane spiraling out of control, I hope).

You had how I see a very interesting experience.Looking the airstrip from this point is indeed so short and pilots need some skill for this.

"Interesting" situation here...the wind is (very) important and may help for a happy land...must have been a good experience for you to be (and photograph) here Jim!Best regards.

Jim, if only you had cloned out the top of the hill on which you apparently were standing, then there truly would have been a mystery regarding how you captured the plane landing.  I love the image as is, though.
