Photographer’s remark

N455FE Aborting landing and going around after performing a sharp (and tight) right base turn in the style of a fighter pilot at Kai Tak but as I guessed, she was coming in too high and soon enough the gears started retracting when the pilot said "FedEx 5447 going around" over the radio. Left main gears are the last to be retracted.
