Planes Taking Off From Hannover Airport by Ho-Yeol Ryu

Photo: Ho-Yeol Ryu

Look at all those people flying away to far away lands! Back in 2005, Korean photographer Ho-Yeol Ryu took photos of planes taking off at Hannover Airport in Germany and stitch 'em all together into one shot: Link

Edit 2/21/12: It's an art piece - Thank you, AnnaZed!

Alex! You of all people I am surprised that you picked this up without investigating it.

This is not a photo of planes taking off and the artist has never claimed that it was.

Here is a detail of the photo from his gallery show: http://exhibitions.connydietzscholdgallery.com/Conny_Dietzschold_Gallery_Exhibitions/Photos_Ryu,_Ho-Yeol_%28Korea%29_-_30_JULY_31_AUGUST_2011.html#20

This is a work of art created with model planes and photo-montage techniques, now it's a meme.

There's alot of "mistakes" in this pic... airlines that don't even go to Germany and if you look at the Luftansa Regional plane on the right, you'll see it "flying" with it's thrust reverses engaged...

Although it's a nice pic, a little more research was in order...

It's hard to believe that someone could survive up there so long and actually made it their home! I felt quite sad watching their belongings being hurled to the ground and bagged up. I wonder what an effort it took to secure each new item and whether the person/ people who lived there were somewhere watching it being destroyed.

After the Cuban Migration of the '80s, nearly every bridge in South Florida was inhabited. You could look up under every overpass and see mounds of trash and living quarters (the occupants were never around during the day.)

I have noticed in the past few years most all the bridge occupants in South Florida have gone away. I don't know if its stricter enforcement or if they all just found different lodgings, but it's rare to see them now.

Like most here I initially couldn't see the image, so had a mental image quite different from the actual situation.

That guy needed to be moved on.

I'm all for people being left alone just so long as they do not present a danger to others and themselves.

That amount of crap up on that centre spar where it could fall onto moving vehicles is just dangersous.

If he was not over traffic I'd say let the guy be.

The missing images are my fault - I forgot to upload them onto Neatorama's image servers before I left for the week (all these posts were scheduled to run while I was gone). Sorry - they should be fixed now.
