@Lustig Andrei,
Looks more like she's departing. Is C-17 her name, or some new designation?

The C-17 commonly performs strategic airlift missions, transporting troops and cargo throughout the world; additional roles include tactical airlift, medical evacuation and airdrop duties.

@edgarblythe,
Certainly seems to be on a mission of mercy in that photograph.

@Lustig Andrei,
The meaning is clear!

There is a large cetacean in the background, and a comely gluteus maximus in the foreground plus an airborne aeronautical war machine in view.

This sums up three of the pivotal considerations of the modern world: the environment, sex, and war.

You guys are sure hung up on backgrounds. That's background as opposed to forgrounds, by the way.

I think that what happened here is that the photog on the beach was really trying to get a shot of the plane coming in but somehow got...er...distracted. Can't quite understand why.

@Rockhead,
Oh, the large cetacean in the background represents the environment.

@Lustig Andrei,
She's not wearing any pants (running joke)

Because the world is round it turns me on
Because the world is round...aaaaaahhhhhh

Because the wind is high it blows my mind
Because the wind is high......aaaaaaaahhhh

Love is all, love is new
Love is all, love is you

Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry
Because the sky is blue.......aaaaaaaahhhh

Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh
