Hello Luggers 

We have taken possession of an apartment on the 16th floor of a downtown
building which we plan to live in when we are too old to survive the winter 
at
the Pender cabin. One of the bonuses of the South West facing unit is that 
we look out
on the landing fight path of the Harbour Air sea plane flights from 
Vancouver to
Victoria Harbour. We didn?t realize that when we bought the unit off plan.

Watch out seabirds!

These shots are easy to come by. Check the flight times out of Vancouver 
Harbour - allow
20 - 25 minutes and the planes come into view. Weather permitting.

All taken with the Nikon D500 coupled to the 300mm f4.0 PF plus 1.4 extender.

Please enjoy - C&C always welcome

Howard.
