Trip to Airport Runway - Francisco Sá Carneiro - Maia | Portugal

Today there are no macros, no trails, caves or rivers.
Today i share some records made during lunch time, before the arrival of the covid into the national territory.
I usually went to the coast during that time, to enjoy the sun and the sea breeze to relax while doing some photo shoots, and during that time i even compromised to register the entire coast of the Matosinhos municipality.
On this day, for some reason that i no longer remember, but most likely because of work, i was a little late and when i looked at the clock realized that i would no longer have time to travel to the coast with the necessary calm to relax and explore new places, but as i had to leave, decided to take a jump to Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport which is relatively close to the place where i work.

I did not go to the building, but to a place almost at the bottom of the runway, where it is possible to watch and record the moment when the planes lose contact with the ground and start taking off towards new destinations.
When i arrived at the site, i noticed that it was already full of amateur and professionals photographers with high quality equipment.

Between them, i felt a little embarrassed with my little machine trying to register that right moment and then i waited the necessary time to register the first take-off and immediately started to search for another place next to the net, where i could be alone and quiet taking my pictures.
In the midst of so much movement, it was possible to view commercial planes, planes of freight companies and even private jets.

Today, the airport serves as a parking lot for the airline TAP's fleet, but little by little the scenario is changing and more movement is beginning to occur and the lines gradually begin to be replaced.

That´s all for today :)

See you soon

Thank you for watching :)
