    1. Actually, this one's a bit sneaky, as I edited out a few light poles in the interest of esthetics. I took this shot from the the parking lot in front of Terminal 8, looking westward. If you look closely, you may just be able to see that the arch of the theme building is in front of the tower.

      But you are right - while this was happening, the sun was rising somewhere! (Hey, you had a 50-50 chance!)

      And yes, I like orange.

  2. Thanks for the lovely sunset picture.
    Palm trees and control towers. Doesn't get much better than that.

  5. John - I worked that aircraft later that night as it left for Auckland. After dark, it's a stealth!
