Some of my favorites from the FRA unveil this past week. I had full access to FRA and could go literally anywhere. The only instruction was to 'not get hit by a plane'.......Even stood under the wing of an A380 as she taxied off the runway....

Great shots, LufthansaFlyer!
The new livery is going to take some getting used to... I miss the yellow, though. It was very distinctive and recognizable.

Some photos straight from my backyard with the Canon 100-400L on a 6D, 100% crops.
I bought this excellent lens last week and I can picture planes in full cruise flight now .....
I thought that the EK A380 had a different livery with the dark stripes on the front, but it is probably the shadow of the port wing....

What would a Travel Photography forum on a site called FlyerTalk be without a thread for photography of aircraft themselves? I'll start.

Happy Planespotting to all, and happy viewing.

Departing from Tel Aviv Sde Dov - the amazing city centre airport of Israel's largest city which gives unparalleled views of the city skyline - as well as the curious sight of flying right next to the tower of the Reading Power Station! Unfortunately the airport is to make way for city development in the next few months - a shame from a frequent flyer's perspective (and I guess many Tel Aviv residents as well, as you can walk from most city hotels to the airport given how close it is to downtown!)
