KSEA 2/7/09

SeaTac is always a bit frustrating - and today's results were less than great - but it was still worth going. I discovered that either my lens is full of dust or I'm long long overdue for a sensor cleaning. Or both. Riddled with dust spots all around.

Realy nice job with those approach shots, especially the 'head on' shots of 737 with the vortacies.
I was out the a couple of years ago. Were you by the golf course or by the park on the opposite side?

Different place altogether...I was at the crux of S 144, S 146, and 11th. There's a hill with a clearing that sits right under the approach to the right runway, and you can shoot center approaches easily - approaches to the left one are a bit of a reach but doable...and if you walk about 100 feet back you can get the approaches on the right runway more or less right overhead. I find it better than the park and leaves the option to photograph all three runways at the same time without having to move too much.

I was at SEA on Saturday just for a day trip. I also went to BFI to spot, then the museum and then downtown for some lunch. I probably drove right by you.
