Coming In For a Landing
Westchester, CA
12-17-22
This is a single image HDR shot at 1/5000 sec. shutter priority at ISO 160 with my Canon EOS-R. Processing as usual in Photomatix Pro, Photoshop 2023 and Topaz DeNoise.
I took a similar shot a few years ago but there were no clouds in the sky and I wasn't standing under a tree for the framing effect. Later I composited another sky into the image. This shot, taken on Saturday 12/18/22 doesn't have any compositing. I had to wait through a couple of planes approaching where there were people waiting to cross the street or whatever.
I've always loved this area. Lots of folks, including me, take photos of the planes approaching LAX from the little park a block up the street, but I love the retro shape of the Paradise Building entrance. (1981)
The plane is a Philippines Airlines Boeing 777.
