PIT Arrivals During the Pandemic, a photo from Pennsylvania, Northeast

Photographer's Note

A few weeks ago, I wanted to see the airplanes parked at Pittsburgh International Airport. I drove down to the airport but found out that I was not allowed to stop where I could see the tarmac and the one photo I was able to "steal" while driving came out blurred. This was taken when I proceeded to the arrivals area in the airport. I had never seen the airport so empty in the afternoon.

Hello Murat, Are there any flights from there? If all flights are suspended, so no wonder it is empty. I wonder how it will work after the pandemic. Probably some airlines will be bankrupt. Attractive composition with these red gates.
Best regards MAlgo

Greeting.
Interesting view, good text ...
Beautiful red pillars and girders, beautiful architecture. Nice part of the airport. A dangerous virus has changed everything.
Nicely shown with a good perspective, a well-captured moment.
Good text about the technique used and the elements of the recording.

Witaj Murat!
Interesting view from daily life.
An empty airport is unheard of, I wonder how long?
Good reportage shot.
Warm regards.

Hello Murat,
The red columns and beams make the view quite eye-catching, and the yellow signs are good complements to the bright and colorful view. I would have preferred a cropped photo without the car's interior. With some slight further processing we would hardly have noticed the reflections in the screen, and we would have got an undisturbed view of the strong red elements.
Regards,
Gert

Hello Murat,
Driving 6 MPH enable a decent clear picture through the windshield.
Yet, an airport that has no action its a sad scene, but I find the red pillars and beams in juxtaposition attractive enough for a photo-session there.
Have a nice new day,
Ike

Hello Murat,
I could see Schiphol Airport from the freeway a couple of weeks ago and also saw all the airplanes parked on the runways. It was strange to see it, just as this completely deserted airport in Pittsburgh. It gives quite an eerie mood to see a place where there are usually so many people so empty.

Hello Murat,

What a lovely sharpness and clarity of the entrance of the airport, taken out of your car.
Nice detailed too, I think never comes back if formerly.
Excellent composition and nice presentation.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John

Hello dear friend and have a nice
day and a happy new week
sometimes one shot is one thousand words
no people down there because of covid 19
but the last days the flights begun and
many tourists arrived in Greece always
under control...let s hope that soon
this pandemic will come to its end
regards
Costantino

murat

the flight companies are even in troubles, I can imagine many of them will disappear at the end of pandemia. another nice flagrant of these turbulent times.
curiously little towns like mine aren't so hit.
take care
