I love this shot! And the colour is terrific. Do you have a website where I can see more of your work? Thanks

Thank you,, Eric. The colour is typical for a plane (also called platane), no PP on this picture. I have no professional website, but if you look at my challenge entries on my dpr profile, this would gives you an idea of my work although not completely representative.
