Just another winter sunset

My most faved (not explored) and most commented (incl. explored) photo. I have only 7 photos with more favs, but all expored.

 

Yesterday was very nice winter sunny afternoon, near Prague-Kbely Airport (It is Air Transportation Base used for air transport of personnel and material within the Czech Republic and abroad. In addition to military-related transport activities, it has been used as a base for transporting Czech constitutional representatives. So no timetible)...

 

I have been waiting for Airbus A-319 (returning from Russian Sochi). The sun was very low and I hope I would be able to take photo with low sun (sunset is very close to runway only in winter).

 

While I was waiting this plane Casa C-295 (sliggly smaller that Airbus, but with nice screws) has made 2 circuits just few minutes before sunset, so I had a chance to take some pictures. And Airbus has landed just after sunset - I have taken some pictures too, but not that kind I hoped. I think this photo of Casa is better.
