firstly a couple of the Nordic Global MD-11, OH-NGB, a very uninspiring colour scheme


and as it climbed away towards the setting sun it gave about the best possible picture of an all white aircraft that I could manage:

a Cargolux B747-8F, LX-VCV arrived as well (there was another due after dark):

Etihad Regional Saab about to touch down (these replaced the Air Berlin flights about 3 months ago now)

and as it prepared to leave the runway

Ryanair about to drop the nosewheel

practicing photos for the Jan 2015 SPOTM!, 2 Easyjets:

one that might have been okay for this month's SPOTM:

And sometimes it just doesn't work out for you! There was an An124 parked over by the diamond hangar, I had been told it wasnt in a good position for photos and that was very true indeed, this was the view from the mound


then I went off to a spot on the approach to try out some sunset shots:
FedEx MD-11 disturbing a few birds:

and another of the same MD-11 right into sun and just above the tree line:

then a Ryanair 737 in the same position after the sun had dropped below the horizon:

then I looked up and saw this about to happen, a Ryanair B737 with the dark (and light) side of the moon, which reminds me the new floyd album is out in 2 weeks, can't wait


that's pretty much all of them, there are a few more in my flickR album but only a few: https://www.flickr.com/photos/125470545 ... 690720383/
