I made a brief dash to Stansted this morning primarily to get some pics of the Qatar Amiri Flight B.747-8 departing.
Super sunlight and several other nice departures made the trip very worthwhile. Here are some of the results starting with the main quarry - what a beauty!...

747 heaven! Some other tasty visitors too, and great light, making for some lovely shots Andy.

thanks everyone, was a super day for 747s especially the Qatari, that came out very low and climbed much slower so got really good angles on that one.

rather pleased!
