I don't get why people stand on the 'wrong' side of the runway.
For the departue (18L), light was terrible! Loads of backlit. :(
But in general it was a very nice day!

Some of my images (quick edit & upload):

#1: the flypast (somehow I didn't use all my zoom, had to make a crop)
Image

#2: Almost touching down (touchdown it self was blocked by press people and some busses).
Image

#3: Reversing op 18R
Image

#4: Passing the spottersplace (lots of people there)
Image

#5: Parked on the J-buffer (bad shot I know)
Image

#6: Still parked, shot from it's behind.
Image

#7: Headshot!
Image

#8: Taxing to E24
Image

#9: Going head to head with a KLM 747 (forgot to put my extra camera with wider angle lens around my neck)
Image

#10: Taxiing towards 18L for the departue (terrible light, anyone some tips of 'saving' backlit shots?)
Image

#11: The (backlit) tail of the beast.

My contribution of today for now(wich was for me the first true encounter with 'the whale') :D
And of course a thank you to Maikel!

1. The fly over was a nice suprise :)
Image

2. Landing 18R
Image

3. Large!
Image

4. And it's gone again!
Image

Got to say that the police had it properly arranged around the runways.

Sucked that when the 380 was on final, some (@%#$) pulled up it's van in the gras...right infront of the crowd (and didn't leave after some yelling).

Was a good day, and i hope we can welcome this visitor allot more in the future!! :D

als je een beetje verstand hebt van fotografie sta je dus om 10u bij de ijweg met de zon in je rug,daarom is dus de spottersplek geen alternatief maar blijkbaar zijn er nog steeds mensen die dit niet snappen,ijweg fotos zijn toppie!

indeed...but it was packed!!! over there.

And also I think a whole lot of non-local spotters who don't exactly know this went to the designated spotting area. If so you will end up with a non-favorable sun position.

Today was the great day a lot of spotters have been waiting for the last couple of weeks. The first visit of a Airbus A380 at Amsterdam Schiphol. It was a long day starting at 05:30 and ending at 18:00, but it was worth it, sometimes you have to do crazy things to just get that picture you want.

Landing arround 10 o'clock and departing at 18:00 from runway 18L. It was a great sight and it was great fun with Stefan and Daan.

1. First the ATC guided the A380 over the field, what a nice suprise from them.
Image

2. There were a lot of busses next to the runway wich made photographing difficult. There was also one irritating yellow truck that parked about 20 seconds before touch down right in front of the crowd, what a retard! (we did let him know)
:roll:
Image

3.
Image

4. The horizon is all wrong but I liked the contrast.
Image

5.
Image

6. All the operators are displayed on the forward section of the aircraft.
Image

7. Departing at runway 18L, we had a very nice spot.
Image

8. Bye bye A380, hope to see you soon at Schiphol.
Image

Now I'm even more exciting about the trip with Daan to Paris! A380 here we come (hope they don't change the aircraft :lol: )
