Went too Noordwijk today, a popular beachplace in The Netherlands. It was pretty cold, and i didnt have any suitable gloves, only gloves for motorcycles, wich dont really work when taking shots.

Arriving at the beach, it really was a good day, although the sun was already quite low.


Found this as i walked up too the beach, you start wondering were it came from


My prefered method off traveling other then a plane/parachute .


Best i could get today, she passed almost directly overhead, i was just in time too stop the bike and catch here.

Just look at that big, fat, grubby old workhorse...
She's beautiful.  :)

Nice shots and a great catch on the 747!!!!!

Cheers guys!

She indeed was inbound too Amsterdam, only inbounds fly over my house, usualy around 4000/3000FT, and yesterday they were going nice and slow,  I also caught a few approach over the noordzee, might be from england. Earlier that day a KLM 747 was almost directly overhead me, going slower and probably even lower then this one, shame i didnt havy my camera with me at that time.
