Had to transport 8 businessmen from Valencia to Palermo (didn't ask why) Here's a couple of shots of the sunset after arrival at LICJ.

I guess those were sponsors of a MotoGP racing team :)

I like the sun effect shot, and those cliffs...makes me remember the famous movie: "Guns of Navarone" ;D

Razza, I think that's without a doubt, but you might have seen it. The movie is from 1961 so it also made before I was born. But I have seen it a couple of times over the years. It based on a story by Alastair Maclean. I remember those cliffs very well. The same cliffs was also use in 1981 in the James Bond movie "For your eyes only."

Oh yes, I forgot it was an Alistair Maclean book ;D

It is a story of English, American and Greek soldiers, who formed a commando during the WWII against a nazi heavy-gun bunker in the Aegean Sea. Starred by: Anthony Quinn, David Niven, Gregory Peck, Irene Papas, James Darren ... all are superstars of the '60s...'70s.

I am not an oldie ;D ...only 30 since 1 day... but I love these classic war movies.
