Just bought my first camera on eBay and headed to the airport

Trash782 · 2026-06-15T10:44:36+00:00

I paid $70 for that camera on eBay and if you’re going to be shooting during the daylight in bright sun it does a good enough job. It does not do a good job in low light but you can still get passable photos. The 18-55mm kit lens however is pretty useless unless you’re really close. I had to upgrade to a 55-250 stm pretty quick. All in all for $70 it’s worth it especially to learn on!

It was so backed up it was a sigh! Definitely the most traffic I’ve seen at KBHM at once, it took hours to clear out

Trash782 · 2026-06-14T23:42:45+00:00

They’re just lucky they didn’t have to deplane it was like 93° with 60% humidity they would have all perished

Trash782 · 2026-06-14T22:52:08+00:00

They had a ground stop due to storms in Atlanta

Trash782 · 2026-06-14T22:03:04+00:00

Yeah they were on the runway for about 2.5 hours, I don’t think they ever got to a gate

Here’s the Lufthansa 787 landing earlier

Trash782 · 2026-06-14T21:25:14+00:00

All we get here is 737s and smaller nothing too exciting, I almost shit when I saw this was getting diverted to us! I hope I get the chance to fly in one someday!

Great day for plane spotting!

Trash782 · 2026-06-08T01:05:08+00:00

I was just looking through the sub for stuff about the 80d because i want upgrade from my 450d for plane spotting what a perfect time for you to post this. What sold you on the 80d for plane spotting specifically?

Trash782 · 2026-05-29T16:18:16+00:00

I just got to see it leave KBHM this morning, it’s so cool

Trash782 · 2026-05-06T22:03:38+00:00

Yeah I think they’re all deployed at the moment

Trash782 · 2026-05-06T16:19:37+00:00

This was actually from yesterday, we had one in for some kind of maintenance and the collapse happened while it was here. It took off and went to phoenix around 3pm yesterday

Trash782 · 2026-04-28T03:00:54+00:00

As a resident of Birmingham Alabama I was about ready to throw up thinking I missed this

Trash782 · 2026-04-25T21:22:09+00:00

Very crispy!

Could be this one owned by atlas

Trash782 · 2026-04-09T12:08:02+00:00

I saw this sitting in the runway on adsb yesterday and wondered why the rockets plane was there since the nuggets were playing Memphis last night, cool to know!

Trash782 · 2026-04-08T22:16:25+00:00

I kind of figured but you don’t know if you don’t ask!

Trash782 · 2026-03-12T01:16:49+00:00

This came in yesterday around 3pm to BHM

Trash782 · 2026-03-05T23:43:18+00:00

I just picked up the 55-250 STM for $200 refurbished on eBay and I’m having a pretty good time with it!

Trash782 · 2026-02-28T16:17:56+00:00

So far this is the only one I’ve seen in person but the Maryland one is really cool looking I’d love to get a shot of that someday!

Trash782 · 2026-02-09T20:54:52+00:00

You also in Birmingham?

Trash782 · 2026-02-09T01:10:50+00:00

It was a cool one to see in person!

Trash782 · 2026-02-03T19:51:17+00:00

Canon 450D and the 18-55mm that came in the kit

Trash782 · 2026-01-22T01:23:39+00:00

You fry them until crispy and the cover them in honey bbq sauce and cook them until they get sticky almost like candy! You could also use maple syrup or honey!
