Risky Landing

2014

Risky Landing by David Drebin captures a surreal and striking moment where elegance meets adrenaline. A woman in a flowing white dress sits calmly while a low-flying airplane descends just overhead, seemingly seconds from touching down on a nearby runway. The scene is charged with tension, set against a vibrant tropical backdrop that heightens both the beauty and the unease.

The contrast is immediate: stillness and movement, composure and chaos. The woman’s calm presence beneath the looming aircraft feels almost theatrical, as if part of a scene frozen just before its climax. Drebin blends fantasy with realism, crafting a moment that feels both impossible and entirely believable. The result is a powerful image that lingers, inviting the viewer to sit with the suspense.
