On BigJetTV first class+ members only live stream (part 3) on YouTube, just watched an insane departure from Toronto of an Emirates A380 literally blasting snow and ice from the sides of runway 23. Insane. #BigJetTV #A380 #AvGeek


UA59 777-322 from Frankfurt landing at San Francisco on 1/20/2023United 777-322 landing at SFO with some smoking rubber. The plane is flared against the Oakland hills and, in front, a calm bay. #B77W #PlaneSpotting #avgeek #fujifilm


I love that people regularly share what music they’re excited about on mastodon. I rarely saw that in my Twitter timeline.


Black-necked Stilt near the City of Burlingame Shorebird Sanctuary. What a pose! Black-necked stilt facing the camera with its legs nearly crossed. It has a white belly, chest, and neck. It’s black long beak, forehead, eyes, and rear feathers is stark against the calm low tide bay waters


Got lists set up in Mastodon. Much better than a deluge in my main timeline. @ivory@tapbots.social can filter list members out of the main timeline, which is very nice.


Emirates A380 preparing to take off from SFO to Dubai on 1/20/2023 during golden hour #avgeek #planespotting #A380 #fujifilm Face on with an Emirates Airbus 380 across a shallow bay at SFO during the golden hour where everything has a golden tint. Oakland hills are in the background on a hazy day.


Here’s an Emirates A380 turning right onto SFO runway 28R on January 20, 2023. I’m fully impressed with my X-T5 and the Fujifilm 70-300mm lens. Those 40 Megapixels really help with the details and cropping to “zoom.” An Airbus A380 is nearly facing directly to the camera on a strip of land with a calm bay in front of it, The plane is turning left onto SFO’s 28R.  A smaller Delta plans is on the adjacent runway 28L, preparing for takeoff.
