Shep's Hill (Tower Mound): light poles update
Line 148: Line 148:


Photography, as mentioned above, isn't particularly unique at Shep's Hill. However, if you're content with side-on shots, it's fine.  Photographic opportunities comprise 16R arrivals, 34L arrivals and departures, and taxiway Bravo and taxiway Charlie movements (among others). Shots of 07 arrivals and 25 departures are possible, but not ideal (especially in summer when there is a large amount of heat haze). Lighting for photography is best in the morning. The approximate lens focal length required is 70 to 300mm.

<br>'''Update''': A line of newly installed lighting poles directly between Shep's Hill and the runway is an annoying obstruction.
