    3 Night shots of JFK

    Went to visit a friend at JFK on the graveyard shift and took a few shots, not to many. Most of the night was spent BSing. JFK is an interesting place late at night with stuff you don't see during the day. Always amazes me how well run this airport is, these guys really are top of their game in all respects.

    What's with those scuffs on the doors? Phil, go grab a Shamwow and buff that out ASAP.

    Great shot, Tommy!

    Sorry about the scuffs. I'll make sure that plane is really pretty very soon!

    Somthing grabs me about the Delta 767. It looks soo "stately" in those colors from that angle. :borat:

    fred did you use some sort of filter for the MD-80 shot or was that just the exposure length.

    It's probably a very small aperture (f/16 - f/22) which will give you that sort of starburst pattern.

    Jes. I feel like my camera is really crappy when I see shots like this. Especally when its night.

    Love the night shots guys.

    The glow of the starboard beacon is really cool on the North American.

    Mind if I use as a desktop on my home PC?
