Jesse Alkire Chicago IL United States 1st Place News/Events

Jesse Alkire is a freelance ACD/Writer/Art Director in Chicago. He grew up in Colorado writing drawing and shooting videos for fun all of which he now happily does for a living. I get inspired creatively when I see something different something daring something with a unique point of view. This photo was shot at the Chicago Air and Water Show which I attend every year (mostly just to take photos). The planes fly so close to the beach that there s ample opportunity to shoot photos with interesting framing and perspectives. As luck would have it I actually saw this shot before it happened and was able to frame it up perfectly as the plane completed the loop.
