Sorry only Qatari shot was in th Cebu 320 photo. Superb night shots there, Raj C. ... Seen that you didn't take the hotel for HKG nightstop, eh?.. ... Let see some more... Norman after B-Suites..... Regal is a step down (for $276 USD!) Those new comforters on the brand new wood floors... Think we can get 6 of us next time. Anyway I spent shooting till almost 2 and took a short nap and started at 6:20 again before boarding my New York at 9am and then slept the first 8 hours! perhaps i should try nightshots instead. where did you take the night pictures from, raj? from the terminal itself?? Mostly around gate 23 on both east and west sides. The action was fast as it takes a quite a time to reshift tripod and lenses (Kwek, I do need that clip, and thank you for Cathay shop shopping trip) I use a medium duty manfretto tripod, 2X2 cloth behind the camera (hand held) to avoid the annoying reflections and most importantly a remote shutter release. Give it a try, best thing, no sun or clouds to worry about however you will barely get 2-3 exposure between the tug moving out of position and taxing.

Sneeze Lam 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2008 (edited) No worries Sneeze, I am sure well catch up next time I am in your part of the world. For being the top int'l destination, it was surprisingly no activity between 1am and 6am, however morning was amazing...witnessed 6 744F landing in a row at 6:30am (3 CX, SQ, Martinair, ElAl) followed by 2 additional CX 744!Cheers Hope I can see you next time you are in. For the airport, it should still have many CARGO movement during 0100-0600, just the frequency is not that lovely than 00:00-01:00 Some shots before my flight to KUL.QR A346 for uncle Pieter New Paint Vs Old Paint; HK Airlines Vs HK Express In Flight HKE B-KXE Edited March 29, 2008 by Sneeze Lam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sneeze Lam 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2008 After a week of mist/ fog, clear blue sky back to HKG. So, I went out and have some afternoon spotting. Targeted with AC's B772LR, NH's B773ER and CX's B-KPF and the rest of the ER. Sad that I was late for the MH Heliconia!! and also the NH's B773ER. However, I was luck to get the ONLY NRT bases B772ER in HKG. As mentioned in A.net by YK that, it flies only from NRT to BKK. Let's share my pics yesterday: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not the Taiko, kekeke June should be nice, however, since predicted this summer will have comparatively more typhoon/ rain than in 2007. Anyway, weather should be blue in summer. Come and see.
