Sneeze Lam 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 what do u mean by restrictions for shots ? The restrictions i mean are mainly about the safety/sercurity issues, the enviromental issue is also a constrain to us. We do have a scenic hill, but it is far from the runways. We do also have a costal line for the landing/take off, but not really can have nice shots all the time. As you can see from the A.net nearly all photos are of the same angles, same locations of taking the shots. Feel fun? Maybe it is fun, because we enjoy the planes, but it is really sad to have shots with nearly the same angles, within our collections over the years..........

Azuddin 1 Report post Posted April 1, 2006 Flower Horn - B747? ...the hump baby..the hump.... look alike? flower horn, very nice. Actually i prefer to call the planes by whale type. here's some of my idea. B747- Humpback whale (for the hump) A380- Sperm Whale (for the flat looking nose) B757, A321- Dolphin (sexy looking and good maneuvering) B777- Orca (big and good and friendly looking) B767, A300- Purpoise whale(little fat and long) An-225- Blue Whale (rare, slow and big) A300ST Beluga- Beluga (look like one) Azuddin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
