During a work related trip to LA I was able to do some spotting at LAX. Here are a few, but still have plenty more to process. Enjoy!

Beautiful photos....

[Kiffy]

Started off with a bang! The first photo is stunning!
Get set.

[AA757]

Great photos Mark! cannot wait to see the rest..... That UA Dreamliner is starting to grow on me....

Exceptional Mark

Love the first two especially - what was your vantage point for taking these?

Trevor

[lijk604]

Outstanding set there sir! Love the Korean into the sunset, Topaz'd?

[Roush6NY]

Impressive work as always my friend! Well done

[Zee71]

Thanks gents! For the tower shot I used Photomax with some minor tweaking. I stayed at the Radisson on this go around for a couple of days. Honestly, I didn't care much for the hotel...it seems a little under maintained compared to the other hotels I've stayed at on Century Blvd. One day I did manage to hit the Penthouse where the resturant once operated, but when I was there, it was being used for holiday parties. Additionally, the door was open on the roof at the time I was there, and I was able to take a few shots.

[tlabranche]

Man...that first HDR is sick! Well done!

[MSN007]

Mark you just killed it. I love your creativity that makes those repeats interesting again. I got a feeling when you were there back in October you were taking notes on what to do on your next visit. Excellent work.

[SengaB]

Nice shots Mark.
I was not aware SWA had any 737s flying around in those colors anymore. Its been over 10 years and they still have they here and there.WOW

[megatop412]

Wow great job Mark! Great catch of Fiji. What's the deal with that ex-Quantas 76? Heading to the desert?

[Zee71]

William …. the ex-Qantas is being operated by ABxAir from what I've heard. Here are a few more ….. enjoy!

[Jared Blech]

Mark, Your PHOTO set makes my PHOTO set look like child's play...

[steve1840]

Mark, that is one killer mother%&@#$! set! I am just blown away by it, and will now never post another LAX shot again because nothing I could post could ever come close to this work.


Nice shots Mark.
I was not aware SWA had any 737s flying around in those colors anymore. Its been over 10 years and they still have they here and there.WOW

Senga

Senga, SWA still has 3-4 of these gold birds flying around as a tribute to their roots.

[threeholerglory]

Mark, Your set makes my set look like child's play...

[GY757]

Must have been nice to get some spotting in while on a work trip....

Very well done Mark! You make the Dreamliner shine! As for the Jared comment there is some very professional trolling going on.
