Was on board A7-BBB (QR 77L) 21may09 enroute IAH-DOH and crossed overhead the Netherlands between 1203-1215 local time, basically just North of Haarlem, than SPY, north of Lelystad, Kampen, Staphorst and then into Germany (Berlin)...

Anybody, by chance, taken this beaty @ 33000 feet :?:
If you flew this route you came above my house here in Purmerend next to SPY.
Normaly i see the QTR 777 daily if there are no clouds off course.
But, i don't have such a camera with a big telelens.

I'am saving for a Sony DSLR200 body with a 400mm telelens.( i do have a converter)

You actually care about those 2 small dust spots but the enormous amount of noise (I know it's almost inevitable with Skyhigh shots, one of the reason I don't get it...) doesn't bother you?

The problem of this pic is, that i use a Tamron 400 mm / 5.6 (analog version ) and share the pics in JPG. This pic had to be cropped to have something nice . I have some more taken with a Sigma 135-400 AP0-DG and have to look at it how that will be eventually after cropping. SIA and Qantas A380's cross every morning the sky above my house.

And yes the Tamron is a getting to be an "old small little beast" :mrgreen:
