Work hasn’t been going well lately, so I came out this weekend to take some photos and change the mood.

Started today at Tokyo Haneda Airport Terminal 2. The mainstay fleet of the past—the 787/777 large passenger jets—is hard to spot now; the 767/321/320/737 have become the absolute main force.

However, with the sunlight behind me, let’s capture a moment for the hard-working maintenance crew.

When it comes to plane photos, takeoff is naturally the most charming part.

After dark, as usual, I went to Terminal 1. Photos with Mount Fuji in the background are always popular.

JAL’s A350 is quite active at Haneda. Here is the moment of landing under the afterglow of the setting sun.

But I’ll save the last photo of the day for the maintenance crew. The reflections on the luggage compartment door, wings, and engine cowlings were quite impressive.
