Stopped in St. Martin from a cruise last week and had about 30 minutes to shoot at Maho Beach. Was fortunate enough to catch 3 arrivals. Plane ID's appreciated.

10smark... what are the chances! I'm in that first picture! :shock:

I saw someone there with a nicer camera than I have and I figured it was for JP or a.net... but wow, never thought I'd run into you on here! :D I'm in the black/blue/grey trunks and white shirt and I was wearing a white hat with a big "E" on it, standing on the wall in front of my buddy with the red shirt on. How funny is that?! Looks like you came away with some nice stuff! Were you on Freedom of the Seas?

Small world!!! I guess I need you to sign a model release :o Yes, I was on the Freedom of the Seas - how about yourself? We rented a car and traveled up the coast and made a stop at the butterfly farm. Then headed toward maho beach. That shot was about 5 minutes after we arrived. We were leaving when the American Airlines plane arrived and I jumped out of the car to shoot that one. Please feel free to add some of your shots to this thread.

You can see more shots from the cruise by clicking the flickr link below. I am still working on them and will have more posted soon.

I really don't remember them being loud - maybe I was concentrating on shooting too much and did not notice. There are many videos on You Tube you can see what it is like - just search Maho Beach.
