Since Maho and planes have been mentioned recently, I thought I would post these photos next. Last morning in SXM, watching the rain approach from Saba before the maddening crowds arrived. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/20170223_081550_zpsw3byn6z3.jpg) Wild surf ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3229_zpstzomzz3c.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3252_zpsadpr49iy.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3262_zpseup6viap.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3267_zps44hrd6w2.jpg) The odd time I join hubby and take pictures of the planes landing and taking off, but never do anything with them. I’m making an exception here. Air France readying for take-off ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3589_zpscm6ejpmh.jpg) And there they go ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3590_zps8eas3qfn.jpg) One of the favourite planes landing at SXM nowadays ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3688_zpswmxm97tx.jpg) Why doesn’t WestJet use this plane when I fly to SXM? ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3595_zpsoqe8qdxt.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag104/Birdwatcher15/SXM%202017/DSC_3596_zpsxro1taln.jpg)

I have the same camera and very happy with the results. However, most often I use a small canon that fits in my purse when travelling as it just makes it easier and the results are very good as well.

Great pics....
Re: pocket camera. I have a great small Canon pocket job but I find the shutter delay a bit problematic when shooting a plane zooming by me. I usually defer to my Canon S70 on burst

yea....the waves are beautiful.....but obviously reeking havoc on the poor beach. i hope things change there real soon.....since we will be there a week from tomorrow for our three weeks at Royal Islander. Can't wait.....but do hope that there will be a decent beach there when we arrive.
