A panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ 8, it has a 12x optical zoom wich comes in very handy!

Why are there animals at the end of the runway. Must be neat to see horses fly when planes takeoff.

They werent that close, it only looks close because the shot is fully zoomed!

Thanks guys! I got a dozen more like the second one.
The mirage indeed looked great, the runway lights looked on fire deu to the heat haze, and when a plane landend you saw the smoke going up and down!
I was indeed at the end of the lights :

I sharpened them a bit after resizing, works like a charm, although dont overdo it after resizing, otherwise it will look very odd! Also, turn on sharpening in the camera settings and leave all else on normal it already should spit out sharp images on there full resolution. And depending on the program your using to resize them use the highest settings(irfanview is lancos filter i believe.
