Boeing 747 taking off at sunset
Boeing 747 taking off at sunset. The orange plumes behind the aircrafts wings are caused by sunlight refracted by the hot exhaust gases from the jet engines. Sunsets are orange because the sunlight travels through more of the atmosphere and other colours (such as blue), which are scattered more than red colours, do not reach the eye

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the awe-inspiring sight of a Boeing 747 taking off against a backdrop of a vibrant sunset. As the massive aircraft ascends into the sky, its wings create mesmerizing orange plumes, illuminated by sunlight refracted through the hot exhaust gases from its powerful jet engines. The magical combination of this technological marvel and nature's beauty is truly captivating. The warm orange hues of the sunset are intensified as sunlight travels through more layers of our atmosphere during dusk, allowing red colors to dominate while scattering other colors like blue. This phenomenon gives sunsets their enchanting glow that perfectly complements the shimmering clouds in the background. David Nunuk's illustration skillfully portrays not only an iconic moment in aviation but also highlights how meteorological factors can create breathtaking visual effects. The image evokes a sense of wonder and appreciation for both human ingenuity and natural wonders. Whether you're an aviation enthusiast or simply drawn to beautiful imagery, this print will transport you to that serene moment when technology meets artistry in the skies above Vancouver. It serves as a reminder that even amidst our busy lives, there are moments where we can pause and admire the harmonious dance between man-made creations and Mother Nature herself.
