Point and Shoot – Aviation Photography

Point, shoot and with a little processing the results can be quite satisfactory for those who are not competing for the top spot within facebook groups, Airliners.net or any other web platform specialising in aviation photography. Here’s a few examples from my Canon SX 740 HS, purchased for around £300 in Bangkok.

Settings on Auto, processing via GIMP and Photoscape, both free downloads. As you can see, the results are plenty good enough for displaying across the internet!

Thailand – Phuket, Off Season Plane Spotting

Phuket, Thailand, May 2019: May is off season in Phuket. The charter schedules from Europe have ended and so whats left for the seasoned and well travelled plane spotter? The weather is influenced by the coming monsoons building off the Indian landmass thus creating constant westerly winds. This means the famous landings over the beach are practically non-existent until October. On the other-hand there are photographic opportunities as aircraft complete their landing roll as they touch down from the East.

China -Zhangjaijie

Zhangjaijie, China, April 2019: Off the beaten track somewhat but I happened to be staying here for a few days last week – and pretty close to the airport to. A quiet domestic regional airport with about 1 arrival every hour on average. The weather here though is pretty bad, mist and haze most of the time, but nontheless here’s a selection of the action!

Plane Spotting in Kathmandu 2018

Kathmandu, Nepal, July 2018: Hello, and welcome to another session of plane spotting in Nepal. This time I’m spending a few hours in Kathmandu before flying to the Netherlands via Istanbul with Turkish Airlines. Rather than uploading millions of photos here, I’ve made a short presentation video, posted to Youtube, with an overview to spotting at Kathmandu. Here’s the link, and if you like it please give a thumbs up, thanks.
