[planekees]

Hi all,

Just a try-out to see if I can get my pictures from Flickr to this messageboard. Some of my Schiphol pictures taken during recent weeks. I hope it works and I hope you like them.

#2 - i don't get that kind of cutting engines. And it's too dark in shadows.
#5 - what u wanted to show us? I don't buy it.

But 1, 7, 8, 9 - amazing! My favourite shots.

Thanks for your kind comments everybody. Much appreciated.
#Maciek: Nr.2 was framed like this because the sun was very low and there was a good view inside the cockpit area, which for me was the most important part of the picture. I think there's just enough of the engines visible to give a good impression of the aircraft as a whole. Nr.5 is just an atmospheric shot of wintry Schiphol, a sight that we don't experience a lot over here. The aircraft is part of the picture, but not the only part. I always try to put some variety into my aircraft pictures.
Thanks for your criticism and I hope my answer will do for you.

What a gorgeous set! How come the BA744 was there? Weather diversion?

[planekees]

Hi Kenny,

You guessed right. It was a very pleasant and totally unexpected surprise to see two BA 747's and a single BA 777 land at Schiphol. The first 747 landed very early when the sun was just about to rise.
