At the Denver International Airport there is a walkway between the main terminal and Concourse A. It arches above the tarmac allowing aircraft to taxi underneath it. It is also above the burial grounds for the Native American Indians. In respect of the burial grounds they have Native American music playing as you walk across. Benches provide places for people to sit and listen to the music while watching the planes takeoff and land. I shot this image looking towards the west and liked the pattern created by the animals on the tails of the Frontier Airlines aircraft.

there is some seriously odd symbolism in the Denver airport (not the Native American walkway per say but other murals etc) but I digress - cool shot with the different wildlife planes and mountains beyond

As overused as it is... "Wow". I've never seen planes like these. What a great idea; they're beautiful. Wonderful image.

This is great. What wonderful tail art on those planes.
Sounds like a wonderful layout for the airport. I've never been there.
