Excellent shot, and a very nice paint on the plane, looks very real, especially with the tail and window lighting.
I agreed with the darkness issue at first, but once I set it as my desktop in my dark room, a lot of very nice details started to pop out. The light borders of the forum get to this one a little too much.

I can't see most of it, but the tail part looks very nice. :)

Awesome shot! Excellent colors, lighting and clouds ... I love it. And that has nothing to do with the fact that it's an Alaska Airlines plane. Or does it?

One thing though: never cut of a small unnecessary part of the aircraft. Aircraft just look better as a whole ;)

Good luck!

Thanks for the comments all. It was hard to get the right mood with the sunshining brighter than it was in this shot. Good luck to all!
