More From Cairns

I love visiting Cairns because the Hotel I stay at has views of the complete runway, and at night you can get shots like I have taken below. Not only that when they are using 15; which is most of the time; as aircraft depart they bank right in front of the hotel. I usually get the corner room at the end which offers a better uninterrupted view, this time they put me half way down the corridor, but I still managed to get a few shots in. Due to Chinese New Year Cairns saw a few more chartered A330's today; two from China Southern and one from China Eastern.
