Dull -> Sunny LHR 12-06-07

No way to photoshop out heat haze mate. The only way I have found is to shoot something thats not near the runway.

Lenses looks good, show us some from the new one soon.

Thanks Manc. Really was a pain to see the shots so blurred by the heat! At the time at LHR the sun seemed to be above the aircraft but turned out was more to the wrong side 🙁 Should be out and about Glasgow tomorrow to test out the big one. Looking forward to it 🙂

Thanks

Thanks Global for your information and positve comments. I used a Sigma DG 70-300mm, but actually just recieved my 135-400mm
yesterday 🙂
Super sharp lenses, and find these to be the best.

Many thanks

Hi Jamie, I don’t think there will ever be a tool to get rid of heat haze. It’s a problem to all photographers shooting a subject over distance.

I find that extreme haze adds a blurry affect and can even make a straight line look wavy.

Even though I’ve already said it, your shots of those A346s are superb! Really like the JAL 777 head-on shot as well. What lens do you use?

Thanks for all for your kind comments. I understand the Air New Zeland is slightly off, these were quick edits. I also wonder if there is a way to get rid of haze in Photoshop ?

Thanks in advance

Fantastc shots Jamie, makes me want to make a trip to LHR if thats the photos you can get.
Love the Air New Zealand 747 just flaring, and the Cathay Pacific 340 on approach, top quality photos
Thanks for sharing

All great shots Lad very enjoyable

Nice arrival shots matey. I like the last Virgin the best

The AIC and ANZ bit hazy and need to be levelled with CCW rotation, otherwise for those conditions which are not perfect for that spot you’ve done very well.

hey, super shots! good job catching (what i perceive to be) G-BNLF! she took me to Hong Kong a while back. you got lucky with the weather too! the virgin looks super crisp……im intigued to know where those first few shots are taken.

Hi Sam they are taken from the 27r threshold and the shots are the best of the days selection most got damaged by heat haze i was there as well

Nice shots there Jamie liking the head on ones and the Air India 747

What a great day we had

Super shots Jamie! Those approach shots are stunning. Not sure about the framing on the New Zealand 744, but those A346 shots are fantastic.

very nice shots jamie love the ba 74 really crisp, sharp, and the reflections on the virgin spot on
WELL DONE.
