Went to pick up my mum at the airport this-evening, so went and took some shots as well. Really nice evening lighting resulted in some fantastic shots. Also had a little play around with panning and got some pretty decent results, though it was reasonably difficult without IS, but it turned out OK. Anyway, here are the shots.

Awesome pics Ben! I particularly like PBL.

saski17, it's good for us Kiwis who aren't at BNE all the time! Plus we can see how good Ben's getting with his photography.

Top shots as always Ben- really like the red reflection in the wing on your first photo though.

Keep them coming!
