    Geneva 28/29.08.09

    Hey guys
    Its been nearly a month since my last post and visit to the forums. I thought I could post some more pictures from Switzerland.

    Last weekend I went to Geneva to meet some friends from Amsterdam.
    Enjoy the pictures:


    (caption is below the picture)


    My first location was close to runway 23:


    Saudi Arabian Airlines from Manchester


    SN Brussels Avro


    My friend arriving from Amsterdam


    Yippey, what a beast!

    The next spot was a bit further down the runway on a small hill:


    Uzbekistan from Tashkent


    Seconds from touchdown






    Finnair Oneworld


    How cute is that?




    Missing the logo on the tail


    I like their new colors


    Geneva at night


    The only one that was holding for an adequate time

    C&C welcomed ;)
    Cheers,
    Pierre

    Great shots. I like the Dc-8 of course and that EasyJet reverse thrust most!

    Superb photos, Pierre! How much or little zoom did you require there?
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Hey,
    I used a Nikkor 70-300 VR lense for all of my shots :) Hope this helps.
