London Heathrow on 27-08-2016

Hello all, I think this my first photo post to this thread. I wanted to post for a while, just needed to get out more! Have some images from 2015 & 2014 but don't know if can use them anywhere.

Anyway here are a selection of aircraft I caught at Heathrow on Sat 27 Aug, had a lovely view and was on a small hill in a biodiversity site as they came into runway 09L.

nice pics Michael, I assume you were between the two approaches to get the opp side of the Emirates wildlfe A.380.

The last one of the Korean is a nice effect but possibly to make the most of the evening sky behind it leave a bit more space around it to get even more effect from the back lighting, I don't know what the sky was like at that time so I might be talking nonsense though.

thanks for posting and look forward to seeing some more soon - there are some more nice ones in the album BTW
