..... I need to do some research before posting.

Heck no ! Post first - otherwise we'll be missing the good things straight off the memory card scenario !

Yes, I got my new Canon lens 70-300mm last Monday and tried it out the next day.

Till now I am still trying to get the feel of it.

Will try some close-up shots for future assignments.

 

As Ignatius mentioned earlier, this extra 100mm makes not much difference.

 

Moer,

 

Not "hardcore". Just practicing. I may have the QUANTITY but definitely not the QUALITY.

 

Sam,Ignatius, BC Tam, Desmond C

 

Appreciate your kind comments. Hope to produce better results as I go along.

My turn.

 

Since Sam's got himself of the Bigma, my shots are getting worse and worse. Not that they have been that good to begin with... hahahahah. But anyway since the spirit that's important, ok lah, I snap, snap anyway.

 

Taxi for Rwy 02 take-off.

 

 

Flying pondok. But this time I'm calling it flying coffin as a tribute to the stories I heard in school. Keranda terbang from the academic block. Hahahha

 

And lastly here's for Adrian and Pieter.

The ever beautiful Dutch Lady.

 

Then spotting session was shortlived.

Awan jahat closing in from the South China Sea. We didn't have the harimau Paddle Pop to save us from awan jahat, so we ran to the car.

 

That's all.

Congrats ... Hehe ... Did you just got yourself the Canon EF 70-300mm F4-5.6 IS USM?

I'm using one too as well as another MWings member - Chaity. IS is awesome!

 

IMO, it is sharpest at 200mm + F8. Any mm beyond 200mm, image will appear soft.

 

Thanks for sharing all the BKI photos here.

"Flying Coffin", just thinking of bring back the old story this afternoon. still remember that year 2003, around August to October, someone report that he/she spot a flying coffin, if not mistaken is saw it from the CCTV monitor. few weeks/days later, they identified that the so-called flying coffin actually is a small aircraft. anyone got the more detail report on this news? or anyone still remember this?

[Pieter C. 5]

Lee,

 

Good to see you're so thrilled about the Fokker F28...it's really her Canadian sister

 

Mike-Mike-Charlie is in a bad need of a wash or new paint...

 

Ewan,

 

Doesn't Golf-Golf really look graceful this way ?

 

Wow, some really big changes goin' on at BKI airport now...these spotting places still available in about 4-5 weeks from now ?

The RMAF Nuri was given the flying coffin nickname last time. And they fly them to rescue other people!

[Peter Smith 1]

Yup, belongs to Shangri-La, A hotel/resort chain based in the wonderful city of Hong Kong. (however their first hotel was in Singapore)

[MIR 2]

Hrmm..if its Shangri-La from HK, it might be Robert Kuok's a/c ?

Around 12:20pm today and viewed from Lintas/Bukit Padang junction here in KK, a MH 734 (being presumptious here, how can anyone be sure from that distance ! ) seemed to be rocketting up skyward at a steeper than norm angle, runway 20 departure I conclude from orientation. Anything happened or anyone saw it too ?

Thanks in advance

Wow, very nice and clear photo. Thanx for sharing with us on the close up photo shooting on construction work at KKIA T1.
