LGA 3/9

**PhilDernerJr** · 2010-03-09, 09:33 PM

I edited today's pics before editing yesterday, so here they are. Weather was great, but the trees and light poles around the Marina are making it tough to find a good, close spot.

Not an exciting batch but I was very excited about getting out there today and finally using the camera for what I hope will be a busy season.

The UAL B757 is BANGIN'!!! Very nice shots indeed...

Thanks. Camera battery died when Frontier came in, and though I got a couple 3/4 angle shots on the quick-change, none were crisp enough for editing.

Hope you guys don't mind the 1200 wide!

WOW! Really amazing pix here!
I take it you were at the marina just off the GCP?

But what kind of lens were you using? Those are REALLY fantastic!

I got no problem with 1200 pixels...keep up the great work! fprgot to mention that the CO 737 is also, umm, very nice.

Yeah, the eastern end of the Marina, using a 20D and a 100-400mm lens. Thanks again!

Hmm thinking about heading to LGA wed or thurs. Need to check weather and such. And hope they are using runway 4 so I dont get grounded by range. :(

If you do, runway 4 is only useful in the morning if you prefer good light. Otherwise try Landing Lights Park two blocks away.
