Spotting @Eindhoven ft. my terrible iPhone camera and photography skills

Did some spotting at EHEH with my friend. Please forgive my terrible photography skills, thanks <3

All photos were taken on my iPhone SE 2020

Special aircraft we came across:

  • Belgium Air Force F16
  • EuroAtlantic Airways 767-300 charter
  • Transavia 737-800 Peter Pan livery

I like variety so I’d say, amongst those great shots the 767 and F16 are my vavourite!

Step 1. go to your nearest airport
Step 2. go to the designated spotting location if there is one
Step 3. pull out your phone with the worst camera and point it in the air towards the metal bird
Step 4. TAP. THE. BUTTON.
Step 5. “enjoy”

I was apart of the iPhone plane spotting gang for a long long time, armed with my 5s and then the 6s. Now I have a dedicated camera, and the SE 3 (2022). I must say these are pretty good for the SE 2/3!

Got really lucky with the lighting in some of them! Especially the first one

My friend borrowed his mom’s DSLR, will probably make a topic with them tomorrow once he has sent me the good ones

Lighting can be tricky with these single camera phones. Proximity to the target also boosts lighting a bit, since it’s easier to focus on something closer, as well as how clean the subject turns out

Military never appears on Flightradar, for those planes you have to use adsb exchange.
Nice photo’s, give me a DM next time, I’m an hour away from you🙃
