I'm not a fan of business or private jets but I like this photo of one taking off from SFO on December 14, 2025. It's a Bombardier Challenger 300 flying to Van Nuys. #Aviation #PlaneSpotting #Fujifilm #SOoC A private or business jet taking off from SFO 28R, showing its belly, with its gears up and a bit of wispy clouds behind it. Its flaps are still slightly down.

In Vancouver today, the sun came out and provided some great morning light at the waterfront

#Vancouver #Aviation #Seaplanes #Fujifilm #SOoC

A seaplane descends above the harbor, with the sun reflecting off its body. A large industrial facility with series of tall tanks looms in the background . The hills behind it all are forested with a few wispy clouds.

A seaplane flies a few feet about harbor waters as it lands, its airframe reflects in the harbor waters. The morning sun lights up a background of ships, port facilities, trees, and buildings built up a gentle hill.

Yesterday evening: Seaplanes at Vancouver Harbor #Seaplanes #Aviation #Vancouver #NightPhotography #Fujifilm #SOoC

A night view of two single prop seaplanes, opposite sides of the photo, at their own warmly lit docks. A windsock is flying at a slight angle toward the ground. There’s a strange cloud shrouded light above the horizon. Across the harbor are hills and lights. Just beyond the docks to the left, there’s a floating chevron gas station.

A nighttime photo of five brightly lit single prop seaplanes all lined up in a column along their brightly lit dock. A bright red beacon is at the end of the dock on the right. In the distance, across the harbor, are hills surrounded by artificial lights. A short span of suspension cable lights (including one tower) of the Lions Gate bridge is visible.

Today (12/14/2025)! Look at those slats! And the condensation. United 777-2 (N796UA) taking off runway 28L for Munich from SFO

#B772 #N796UA #SFO #PlaneSpotting #Aviation #Fujifilm #SOoC

A United 777-200 taking off, gear already up, with slats down and flaps slightly visibly down. The slats are shadowed as the sun is behind the aircraft (though out of frame but causing a lot of glare). Wing condensation is visible above and behind the rear wing edge. There’s also visible condensation in the left engine. The aircraft fills the whole photo.

Bauzten, December 2023 #Bautzen #StreetPhotography #Fujifilm #SOoC

A night scene with warm lights glowing off the cobble streets & three story apartments, with lights strung across the street. Wreaths hang at the center of each light strand. Silhouettes of people with long shadows are walking down the pedestrian friendly street.

A raven. #Raven #BirdPhotography #Birds #SacramentoWildlifeRefuge #Fujifilm #SOoC A photo of a raven from the front, as its perched on the tip of a bare branch. Its stark black feathers stand out agaist a blue sky. Its beak is slightly open, almost as if it's saying something. There's a glint in its left eye.

Classic Black Phoebe! They’re always on the tip of objects close to the ground, searching for its next meal. This one is a crossing guard for a very brief moment. #BlackPhoebe #Birds #BirdPhotography #Fujifilm #SOoC A black phoebe is perched atop a stop sign. Only the rear the stop sign can be seen, with the sun lighting up its back, highlighting the wood pole and straps keeping the sign attached. The black phoebe is looking to the right, its back lit up, but the rest of its dark body in silohette. The sky is cloudy.

Snow Geese have swarmed the Sacramento Valley. Some of the darker geese in the second photo are White-fronted or Canadian #SnowGeese #Geese #Birds #BirdPhotography #SacramentoWildlifeRefuge #Fujifilm #SOoC

Six Snow Geese with their white bodies and black wing tips soar above in clear blue skies. The sun highlights their right breast, neck, and head. Far off in the distance, dozens of geese, Snow Geese and White Fronteds (maybe some canadian), take up the photo frame as they fly in a foggy sky.

From a few weekends ago: this bird was exceedingly far from me and so was mysterious to me until I downloaded its photo from the camera. I was VERY surprised to find a Belted Kingfisher. Yeah, you’ll need to tap into the photo to see it well... #BeltedKingfisher #Birds #BirdPhotography #BlackButteReservoir #CropToZoom #Fujifilm #SOoC A Belted Kingfisher, with its cool blue-gray mohawk & cape, along with white cheaks, neck, and chest, studies the distance to its right, while perched on a utility line. Behind it are various blurred trees and some powerlines.
