About seven years ago, I started to do some spotting with my Canon A70. I was 12 years old back then. And now, after those years I thought it was time to share (some of) the greatest planes I have seen so far.
Please don't mind the lack of quality at some photos as I used the following Cameras, Canon A70, Minolta Z1, Nikon D50 and Nikon D90. Also my editing-skills weren't that good at the age of 12
