… there’s this!

Still fancy that flight to NYC? :diablo:
Here are a few more from my visit this morning – first time I’ve pointed my camera at an aeroplane in months!



Cheers,
Phil

An interesting (1.5 degree) slant on natural talent, I have to say! 😀

P.S. Did I mention unlevel?…

To illustrate the point – here’s the last photo I took, which I’ve sharpened up a bit so it doesn’t look so bad.
This is the same angle as the KLM shot – and really is the end of the runway!

Thanks for all your kind replies,
Phil.

I can show you the meaning of being soft – As in image 😉
Yours are blurry, Spalds. Not soft. There’s a difference. 😉

The next shot I took shows the end of the runway but its too soft to be anything I’d want to show other people 😮
Soft?! You?! Never!!!!!

It is indeed.
Nice shots Phil, that photo doesn’t even do justice to how much of the runway the CO really used up. I flew into Bristol on the 6th, shame it was in the hours of darkness though 🙁
I apologise for that – it was a combination of factors meaning that this was the last decent shot in the series I grabbed:
1. Me still being on one-shot AF (i think)
2. Rusty panning skills,
3. Using up the camera’s buffer too quickly,
4. Brusing my lower jaw as it hit the ground – quite a way up from the top rung of my steps! (I didn’t fall off, it’s just a figure of speech!)

Just for reference since I never been there. The taxiway behind the CO, is that the same one the KLM lined up from?

Great capture on the CO! I would have loved to have been in the flight deck for that takeoff.

Great shots Phil, looks like you had some very clear weather this morning. Love the shot of PH-KZG lining up with the estuary in the background. The CO is a great capture as well!
