Indeed, Lance. I’ve been doing quite a lot of geeking out lately and am having fun with curves!

Curves on the brain, that lad! 😉

Nice catch with the Iberia retro! Shame the weather didn’t play ball all day but if you have editing software with a Curves function then a little adjustment would work wonders on some of the slightly darker ones. 🙂

Number 7 was Uzbekistan Airways. Luckily the weather cleared up haha, we were a little worried about it. We could hear the planes but we did not see any in the beginning!

Nice shots Maikel. The MEA was my favourite. Nice to see that the UK is not the only place with foul weather! 😀

the Lufhansa A340 reminds me of an expedia trip we took in 2004 MAN-FRK-TORONTO

30. And the last one to end the series, in this case the Boeing 747-200 that joined Iran Air in 2009. Good to see that this aircraft is still flying, pictured it a lot of times when it was still in Martinair colors (reg. PH-MCF).
Thanks for watching guys!
