Not sure how I should take your comment, but the turbulence happens worldwide. Anyway, who is forewarned is forearmed, the rest is up to you

The most danger in shooting during take off or landing is that camera isn't fixed. Aborted take off or joggling can make it fly through the cabin with some huge acceleration and badly hurt you or other people. And you don't know when this can happen. So while the belts are fastened camera should stay in your bag for the safety.
Sorry for the offtopic!

I believe you aren't supposed to have electronic equipment turned on during landing and take off. This includes cameras, which I usually ignore, but turn my screen off, so the camera doesn't look digital.

Interesting that you chose to present the image in B&W, and sharp contrast. I like the starkness of it. Nicely done!

It looks to me that the sea breeze is killing the poor thing rather than helping it. Nice in black and white.

Great DOF, and subject is crystal clear. I think off centered images are more appealing. But imo, there's a little too much background showing on the right. Make the image feel as though somethings missing.

Nice B&W with lots of details but about the composition, it would have been better, as they are watching to the left, to keep more empty space in the left area of your picture then behind the animals.
