Gordon,
Thats basically all the AIC 772 did. He did a small wing dip but it wasn't really noticeable.
John,
I shot the Air Berlin A333 from Costco next to the water. I saw lots of photogs that were in Firestone but didn't recognize anyone/cars when I drove by. When were you there?
Senga
It was a great day of spotting today - a great group, terrific conditions, and some interesting subjects. It was good to see everyone today. I didn't get out until this afternoon, but got some good captures over at Firestone.

At least Josh was able to get out to catch this one today!

Yes I was out there from a little after 2pm until they switched to 22L. We had about 8 guys from NYCA out at Firestone this afternoon.Quote:

Keep in mind that this is my first time shooting with DSLR and I'm not great at editing yet, so these probably could be better...

The plane looks good, but I'm not sure what's wrong here, perhaps haze?

A nice finale to the morning spotting...

More to come tomorrow, but I definitely had a blast with you guys. We've got to do it again soon!
You should have dropped by anyways bro. I am in complete awe of some of your pictures and it would have been a pleasure to meet you.Quote:

I'm seriously hung over from last night (damn 151) and I think maybe still a little drunk, so I'll probably wait a wee bit to edit and post. For me, it was probably the second best day of spotting I've had. There was an awesome crowd out there and it was all laughs and cameras. I can't wait to see the gatherings once the weather warms up. Stay safe guys.
Some nice shots here. Looks like the perfect winter light to. I was going to go out but after the previous weekend I really needed to take it easy and get some rest.
Here is one of my shots of the Cathay 777, I will try to edit and post some more soon. Thanks everyone who was out yesterday for making the day the most fun I have had spotting since I have lived in New York. Take care and can't wait to hang with you all soon, Brian

That was all before 1300 hrs. EGADZ! What a day!
Wow. I barely had time to look at my pics before I fell asleep last night, but I hope they came out half as good as all of yours did...
Looking good next weekend too...I should be able to stay out all day next Sunday if the weather holds... :D
I've never had so many shots to edit before! With yesterday's great light and variety, there's just so many to choose from!
An unexpected visitor...

This is for Kenny. Kenny loves Mad Dogs LOL
http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u...8/DSC01819.jpg
And finally, I can sleep at night now that I have this beauty (and Kenny can't bug me that I missed it, though I'll never live down the skiing story...)
I actually only cropped this picture, it came out so well I didn't even had to edit it...

I am really REALLY pleased with how all of these came out. What a great day!
Great shots everyone!!!
Great shots! Glad to see everyone was out there in full force!
Kenny, I gotta tell you I love your Cathay shot! The composition is sweet with the Airbusii in the background there.
John, wunaladreamin,
Hmmm maybe next time then, I'll try yo go where you all are.
:oops:
Senga
Finally got some time to quickly edit my shots from Sunday. It was hard to narrow down which shots were my favorites, but here they are. Again thanks to everyone that was out there, so much fun shooting and laughing! PS-Kenny when Air Berlin shows up I will get you a memory card.

Ok, it took me a while, but I finally got through my photos from 2/24.
