While there's no real places to avoid, it's probably best if you don't do your spotting/photography from the terminal itself, as this will attract the attention of security. Also, don't park your vehicle in front of any emergency/access gates.

Also, don't park your vehicle in front of any emergency/access gates and be careful on how close you stand to the fences as sometimes the security will ask you to stand 3 metres back.
