Today I made my first visit to the mounds with my new camera. The "hill" was crawling with insects so I stayed on the soccer field. Here are some from the afternoon:

Aerlingus A330-300 going around:







JFK Tower in the distant:


Aerlingus A330 back:




Some distant 13R departures:

Honk if you like blue:

I knew that Aer Lingus went around, it went over me very low at an angle you never see and turned back to go to 22. To cool.

Got some nice shots their AirTrafficController. The quality of your pictures has stepped up a whole lot with your new camera however it looks like you already have quiet a few dust spots!

Nice framing with the American 777-200 and good catch of the Aer Lingus go around and the KLM A330-200.

Eric, the KLM A330-200 is now a common visitor so she is very catchable!:)

Nice pictures, but I have one tip for you. Since you are shooting digital you can take as many pictures as you want. It looks like you are limiting yourself to 1 picture per aircraft. Don't be affraid of shooter button. Take 5-6 shots of each aircraft and then delete the worst ones.
When I started with aviation photograhpy I didn't have that convinience of shooting digital. I've learned hard way how to position aircraft in the frame. It will take few times to learn proper framing but again, you are shooting digital and you can delete pictures on the spot.
Keep practicing :)

Nice shots! The one of Habitat was good...she seems to be a regular visitor these days.

If you happen to be out there early afternoon tomorrow, maybe I'll see you...I'm hoping to give my new camera a spin there before my BBQ.

Good shots. Nice catch of N750NA. :)

Great Shots!
I love the Swiss A330 with the grass.
KLM A330 is great too!

That Lingus 330 carried my girlfriend away to Ireland last night. Nice shots though.

I actually like the Delta CRJ in new colors. Maybe because it's smaller it looks better? Good stuff, but like Rafal said, unless you have a very small memory card, put your camera in multi-shot mode. I usually take 3-shot burts and get at least 1 good one per aircraft. The ability to overshoot and get more quality, than undershoot and not get what you want is the pure genius of digital cameras.

yea i took like 3 photos for each aircraft and deleted the bad ones

I'm not trying to rub it in your face, but maybe you should take 5-10 pictures of each aircraft. Go out and practice :)
