KLM Blue
Three KLM Boeing 737-800s are being prepared at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol in the Netherlands for their evening flights. Both the old and new company liveries are visible. I took this photo just after sunset, during the famous "blue hour." But with a blue airplane arriving or departing every minute, any hour could be considered a "blue hour" at KLM's hub airport.

K-MAX N357KA In Guayama, Puerto Rico
Framed by the dense foliage onto which power lines headed to San Juan, Puerto Rico, had fallen in the fury of Hurricane Maria, this K-MAX operated by Rotak Helicopter Services precisely lowers a high-tension power line tower support. The K-MAX placed supports and towers, hauling the fallen conductors out of the jungle.
