Skymas!
As Christmas is fast approaching I am sure many of you have or are about to get your Christmas tree up. In our household our tree has just gone up so I thought that it was time for this festive photo to go up also. Many of you guys who regularily comment on my posts are all over the world, I felt that these aircraft would be very apt, representing the five continents of the globe, In fact it "makes me want to oh oh oh oh oh oh, London to Jamaica, LA to Africa" or should it be ho, ho, ho, ho, ho makes me want to! (homage to JLS's She makes me wanna oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh......)
Of interest the aircraft in this post were all taken from the same spot, Putney, London as they descended towards Heathrow airport last summer with me sat on my back shooting skywards, further details are:
Time: Friday July 15 12:10 - 13:23 BST 2011
Altitude 3000 feet (estimate)
Azimuth/Bearing 056° N56E 0996mils (true)
Elevation Angle +90°
Horizontal Angle +20.7°
Each aircraft was shot every 2 mins. Gave me an idea for a future project!!
Merry Christmas all! Oh oh oh oh oh oh do press L as does look so much better large and with a black background!
Last thing stamp a note and your country of origin on this post! Lets see how many countries we can get on here and how many from each country, I will start if off!
