Thought I'd post some of the catch from DFW last year. It really is a great airport to shoot at-if you can get over the MD-80 parties, as 10 of them land in a row, in front of your lens.
Obligatory MD-80 shots

Winter is more challenging, but still more than doable.

This shot was months in the making. It took the right combo of delayed departure, favorable weather, and fast driving to make it happen :)

Believe it or not, I hadn't shot a non-government 747 before this July (this was it)

This shot was what got me thinking about posting some DFW stuff today. I learned that this bird, the only passenger DC-10 I ever shot, was scrapped. With the DC-10 being by far my favorite widebody airliner (parents both worked for McDonnell Douglas), its sad to think I'll likely never see another non-cargo DC-10. Here she is, bathed in some gorgeous Texas sun.
