As promised a few more from my back garden, all taken with in about 3/4 hour today!!.
(I'm on finals to Manchester, and occationally they come within range and the lighting is just right)









How'd this get in ??












And just to finish, can one of you clever blokes ID this for me (Make and Airline if possible thanks , it was a long long way off , hence the shabby edit ,,,,,honest!!)

[beefsteak]

I see Flickr ain't being too generous today !!

Hi Beefsteak

Have fun
Terry

Hi Reggie
We flew this time as it is our holiday . Personally I would love to give it a try & attempt the drive here .
We flew LHR /DOH /GOI on Qatar , unfortunately it was dark when we arrived at both Doha and Goa, but I got a few snaps.
The return journey sees us in Doha at dawn for a 2 hour stop, so I may fair better.
Obviously I will do a full report upon my return .
Have fun
Terry

Here's a few from Christmas Eve caught OTT Barlow to the west of Chesterfield.

Sorry no reggies as i was without the laptop that day.
















My camera settings change depending on the conditions but lately i have been using something like

Manual Mode
1/1000th
f9 ish
iso 500

It really depends where the aicraft is in the sky in relation to the sun, yesterday i was seeing shutter speeds down to 1/1250 away from the sun and upto 1/2500 nearer to the sun.
A tip that i think really works is to underexpose the image by 1 step when there is a clear sky, this stops the white areas of the aircraft being blown. I watch the exposure meter in the viewfinder and keep it 1 step under by adjusting the shutter speed.
BTW there are some cracking shots in this thread, well done all.
