High side view of a twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left across a saturated section of airport apron.
The plane is largely white, with a lilac section in the middle, over the wing root, and blue at the rear, both with swirly white piping, and grey and blue "Blue 1" titles on the upper forward fuselage.
Smaller, white and grey "Blue1" titles are on the blue tail, and the white registration "OH-BLQ" is on the side of the engine pods, mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, next to a small Finnish flag.
The plane is reflected in puddles on the rather wet apron in the foreground, which suggests it has recently been raining, if it is not still doing so, with more wet apron filling the background.

The registration "G-BOPT" is on the rear fuselage in red. The tail is white, with a grey leading edge, and a red beacon on the top. A large grass airfield fills the background, leading up to trees in the distance, with a couple of other light aircraft parked on the grass. Bright but hazy sky fills the rest of the frame.

Side view of a twin engined jet airliner, with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, taxiing from left to right. The plane is mostly white, with large "Star Alliance" titles running along the fuselage. The engines are a deep blue, with a wide black vertical vertical band in the middle with the registration "OH-BLP" in white, as well as a white flag with a black cross. The tail is black, with 5 silver arrowheads arranged in a circle. Those same arrowheads are visible in a smaller form under the cockpit windows at the front of the fuselage. In the background, a large terminal building is visible, with several planes parked on their stands. Above it all, the sky is a hazy grey-blue.

The plane's fuselage is mostly light blue, with a thick dark blue and white stripe along the middle, and a silver belly. The tail is white, with dark blue "KLM" titles under a stylised light blue crown. In the background, the airfield rapidly vanishes in to haze.

Closeup of the tail of a twin propellor airliner parked facing to the left. The planes body is a dark grey, with a deep blue belly, the 2 colours seperated by a red stripe. The tail has very thin dark blue and black stripes, with the horizontal tailplane mounted half way up the tail, with a blue and red letter "U" visible above that. In the background, the sky is a flat grey.

Close up of the tail of a three engined jet airliner parked facing to the left. The planes body is mostly red, with a thick white stripe running along the body, and a silver belly. The tail is red, with white "LTU" titles. The centre engie inlet is white, with black "TriStar" titles. A silver twin engined jet airliner can be seen taxiing out of frame on the left of the frame, the rest of the image being the shadow of a city skyline vanishing in to mist.
