I get the feeling when you re-sized your pics, your height to width ratio was not maintained. Your pictures seem a little compressed width wise and it makes all the aircraft look a bit shorter and fatter than they are.

Nice variety there, you got some really awesome light captured when you were taking the 747 pics there.

Is Sydney airport easy to get around? I thought there would be a ton of security but you seem to have got all over the place! tongue.gif

BTW- I notice what deane mentioned too, all the aircraft look a little squashed.

I agree. Your photos are a bit squashed laterally.
Compare the Viva Macau with these shots:

But other than that great shots!

Isn't it evident?? Boeing are my favourite aircraft.

P.S. that's is my real birthday but I wish to keep my real age secret to keep you all pondering.
