Aerial Photo - Belfast, N. Ireland

[Jon53]

New to the forum so I'd thought I'd say hello with a photo of my home city. Just a quick snap of the City centre I took while 'illegally' flying over in a light aircraft.

Hey Jon, welcome...

Thats a nice shot, I can see all the recognisables.... Waterfront (looks puny from up there!), Hilton, BT building etc.... you get any more?

Hi, yes I took quite a few photos. We travelled quite a distance in the plane so they're not just from Belfast.

Here's another of the infamous and highly gastly looking City Hospital:

Fun shots! Here's to flying illegally and snapping away whenever possible :cheers:

Nice job on the aerial shots. Will you get a chance to do this again? If so, bring your UV filter along to help with the haze. The best, of course, is to shoot infrared film.

Welcome to TPF!

Just joined and felt I had to say how wonderful it is to see the city I used to live in. Lived along the Shore Road in Merville Garden Village and before that Greenisland.

Wow! Fantastic to see these.

Awesome shots.
I have an old film shot, taken on a passenger plane thousands of feet in the air, of my house when we were flying back from Dominican Republic. It's a small dot but it's unmistakeable.

Been to Belfast a few times as my sis used to live there.
I recognize the cool Bank of Ireland building and of course the monstrosity of the city hospital....saw that everyday from my sisters flat balcony.
I had so much fun in Belfast and N. Ireland. i recommend everyone to pay a visit.
Thanks for sharing these and welcome to TPF
