Planespotting was rly fun! I intend to go again, but probably to MDW bc there is construction on I-90 so it takes near 2 hours to get there.

N/A looks like a GLEX or Global 7500, and is it just me or does the Contour have a very hight VS for final approach?

Yeah tbh I was too lazy to look through too deep to find what it was. Also yeah that Contour plane had me giving em the side eye. No go around tho. It also could’ve been the angle I took the shot at

I Love Contour Aviation CRJ2’s :heart_eyes:

Me too lol

Everyone should take note of this topic because you are witnessing the last plane spotter that uses film.

These look amazing! Is there any way you can get closer? Just so you don’t have to (I’m not hating) crop so much on the top and bottom. Having the photo like a horizontal A4 paper makes it a little more appealing and neat. (Like the 1st and 2nd photo) Understandable though if thats as close as you can get.

Awesome photos nonetheless!

If you try turning the capture rate up the pics won’t look blurry I would probably put the camera in sports mode Great pictures tho!

Uhm these were all digital photos sir

Wait what :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Idk, that’s what one of the names were

Oh wait I needed to reread that I thought you were shooting with a EOS 3 not the Rebel 3

Oh wait nevermind when you said digital for some reason I thought you meant digital like an iPhone

Hey! Not bad for first time spotting. I, myself when I plane spotted when to the cell phone lot but you don’t really get good photos, if you would DM me for a very good location up close. (Dw you won’t get caught)
