First time spotting planes at the airport
A friend has been trying to get me to go out and photograph planes at the airport for weeks, and I finally went today. We had a great time and in about 90 minutes, we had a lot to shoot at. I was using it as an opportunity to get some shooting in with my 400 2.8. I used it with a TC1.4 on one camera, and a 200 on the other. We were in the back of a pickup, and not quite high enough to get over the fence completely.... but we had great fun.

Well thanks... I am pretty big into photography, but tend to only shoot sports. I am trying expand my horizons...

I wonder since it's the same tail number, and the details of the photo are only minutes apart, if the two of you were at the same place???? By chance did you see someone else standing in the truck with you, maybe with a camera?



Nice photo, glad you two had fun. Wish I could come play...

It was his truck... and clearly, he is the expert at shooting planes.
