    LAX and LAS in FEB

    Hi guys,

    It's been quite a while since I posted, but I regularly read thru and look through your images.
    I'm a bit bored atm, so figured I'd post some LAX and LAS pics, from my visit back in mid-February.

    Shame you couldn't join Tom, even though weather wasn't the best most of the time.
    Also, was good to meet Nick again. Hope you like the pics.

    Had a nice room at the Marriott Courtyard at Century Blvd. 6th floor, 5mins walk from In and Out Burger, and a gooood view of the 24s.





    Over the next few days I had a good mix of sightseeing and shooting from the museum, imperial hill and in n out.

    We're goin to Hawaii 8)


    ....and to Disneyland too!








    Big red...!


    and big blue


    Two sunny shots from the museum




    and two rainy ones. The EMB 120 is from Imperial Hill, they were operating on the reverse pattern.




    In n Out Burger, 24R sunset landing


    and Tinkerbell...


    Also, some LAS shots:

    The planespotter's favourite fish - without sun :evil:


    75th anniversary logojet. No sun, of course...


    Cali One


    Shamu One


    Star Alliance the 2nd


    Not too rare around here


    off we are again, heading for LAX


    and again, heading for PHX


    Thanks for looking :borat:

    Awesome stuff, Florian. How long were you in LA? That's a ton of special schemes for one trip!

    Wow. I am even more impressed with the quality of your photography than I am with the number of special schemes you caught!

    Man Florian, those are some supper awesome shots you got!

    I love the American 777 in the rain and the 747 at sunset. Gorgeous!

    At the museum do they let you stay as long as you want taking pictures?

    Florian,

    The sunset shot taken by In-N-Out is beautiful, there is no other way to put it. It makes me want to go back to LAX so badly. Thanks for sharing! Later, Brian
