Merlin for Lunch
Yesterday morning went to the airport for some shots of Icejet's very nice Do.328.
Not long after arriving, Jorge called my attention for the incoming Merlin on final to runway 23!
WOW!! It's been quite a while since I last caught a Merlin...
Jorge lended me its 50-500 as I was with a 18-200 and they weren't making photos easy...
I was on the terminal balcony and they landed quite far away on runway 23, before taxiway Bravo
and then taxied into a parking also far from the balcony...
I already missed shooting with a sharp great lens like the 50-500...but must admit that, at first, when I started shooting, everytime I pressed the shutter, expected the lens go black....(the problem that mine had) and took a few shots to loose that impression.
Anyway, a great bonus!

(It got parked at least after lunch....don't know when it left)
That's good news!!!
ResponderEliminarAfterall my lens is still in shape :P
Perhaps it's the camera that's too old, with lots of work all these years ;)
:)
ResponderEliminarDepois da confirmação da 17-85 é sempre bom ter boas notícias...
Tive umas quantas desfocadas mas, a 500mm "à mão" não se pode querer que saiam todas bem ou atirar a culpa para a lente...
Estão de volta?
ResponderEliminarNa verdade o Merlin tem estado sempre no destacamento (aliás, o destcamento é agora assegurado por 2 Merlins. Já não há Aviocar).
ResponderEliminarEu é que nunca mais lhes tinha posto a vista em cima....
Boaas fotos merlin vejo muito pouco pois...
ResponderEliminarNão amigo as fotos não sao da minha casa foi tiradas do Pico do Facho pois foi comer erva andei um pedaço para chegar aos postes de segurança que la tem do aeroporto
