An Airbus in a beautiful crosswind landing - you can see it aiming quite a bit to the left of the centerline, to compensate for the wind.

It's a perfect spot for plane watching. Here are some more I posted previously.

This one looks like it's headed right for the town! I can barely see the runway.

That runway looks pretty short with the telephoto. I like that you can just barely see the big mountain behind the closer hill. That's one of those airports where you would want to land right on the numbers, and not somewhere in the middle.

Great capture. Looks like you were in a good spot to see the planes land. The yellow tail is a bonus.

Nice shot. I love the light on the plane, and the almost obscured mountains in the distance.

Leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again. LOL! Splendid shot!
