Birmingham: Airport Photos

[Aviador]

Hay I really like those and I was surprised you'd chosen to put them into the scrapbook gallery corner. The Globemaster looks so atmospheric and the Air France looks sharp behind those intentionally out of focus leaves.

 

[Ray Finkle]

Yeah I thought about the regular gallery but wasn't quite sure how people would like them as they're not your conventional type of aircraft photo so opted for the scrapbook instead.

This is one of my favourite photo's, Air India 787 VT-AND, absolutely fantastic.

Point taken about the galleries. I might change the name of the scrapbook gallery because it gives the impression the images aren't all that good, when in many cases they are. I agree on the above picture it's a beautiful picture taken at just the right time before it's too dark to capture all the detail.

Hi Ray, do you think it will be ok for me to post the above Photo on another website i go on about Aviation ????

 

[Ray Finkle]

It's available to share on Flickr so I imagine if you give full credit and a link to the site it should be OK. You could always contact the taker through Flickr just to be sure.

Thomson 738 lining up for runway 15.

Is the view walking down from the Marston Green station? I can't believe I was so close to views like that but I just didn't go far enough.

 

[Ray Finkle]

Yeah this was taken from the top of the hill as the footpath starts to descend, a great spot for 15 departures but useless for 33 arrivals.

I can't believe I was so close to views like that but I just didn't go far enough.

I can't believe it either, another 2-3 mins walk round the corner and you'd have been at the end of the runway :s_sad

Finally got to go out for a couple of hours and take some pictures, there's quite a few which I'll post over the next few days.

As ever they're all great pictures Ray Finkle, especially the first where you get the moving sensation with the buildings slightly out of focus yet the aircraft is pin-sharp, great picture!

It's not very often I get chance to photograph United as it arrives way before I get up on a weekend but Sunday it was running with a two hour delay.
