Last friday the lady threw me out of the house for a girls only afternoon, so what better thing to do then go Brussels for some spotting. Different wind direction as usual, so I needed to find a new spotting ground, and I did.

But that also meant shooting into the sun, even though it was partially clouded. Not simple... lol

Nice shots! Would have been much tougher without the cloud cover.

BTW, the Easy is an A-319-111 according to - http://www.airframes.org/reg/gezbw

Tv setting + spot metering + positive EV compensation. Think I was at about +1.

Have to be careful though, if you hit the reflection of the sun while measuring the light, the shot will be seriously underexposed... lol... took me a while before I figured what moments I had to wait to shoot.
