First of all; thank you for all kind comments! That’s what driving me personally towards posting and posting. (Too often forgetting about this forum – I must start remembering you too:) )
I am very glad to hear there are more people than myself with “a thing” for detail-photos. That’s my fav. kind of photography, especially when I get to walk freely among aircraft and do whatever I want in whatever angle I need 🙂 Not happening among airliners but there the 300mm takes care of those problems regarding distance from the metal birds.
Someone (007peter) asked if I was well wrapped; and to that I can reply AFFIRM! Hehe. The temperature was below freezing and I thought I lost the feeling in my toes some times but … what don’t you do for some testshots? 🙂 Been there once before in worse weather.
I am very happy with the lens; it works absolutely fantastic. You may also see the picture below I shot using the same lens. It’s showing a friend of mine on top of his MC before putting it away for the winter. Guess he wanted a picture to make him stay motivated through the winter period.

I agree with Adam, it’s great to see photos from somewhere slightly different, especially when they’re superb photos like these. Excellent work, Sir! Your new lens is clearly working well for you!
It’s funny actually, a photo thread from somewhere totally different and I’ve flown on both LN-KKL and PH-KZN! 🙂

Cracking shots, I am a bit of a sucker for the close up detail shots.
