I made another 6:00 AM trip to the Desert Botanical Garden on Sunday. I was standing at the top of the trail that goes up the side of a mountain and noticing the stream of flights taking off from the airport. One right after the other, they kept emerging from behind the mountain. I decided to try to snap a photo of one of the jets popping out from behind the cactus on the hillside. This was the best one I got.

The Desert Botanical Garden is located north of the flight path for Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. Every time I visit the garden, I always see jets taking off and if I'm there early in the morning it seems like a steady stream of them are flying past. I'm so used to seeing (and hearing) them that I hardly notice them. I'm glad I took notice this time.

Great to have the plane in the frame
I love plane spotting.
I always like watching the planes take off.

You caught a great view of that one with the cacti, Sharon.
Well timed with this shot.
What a great capture, well done!
Excellent shot! What sort of camera did you use? I am in the market for a new camera- I have an old refurbished canon- and a phone but neither are even remotely great. Your shots are clear and wonderful always!
That's a splendid photo of the jet and the cactus. As I was looking at the cockpit windows I thought what a marvel it is that such a huge thing as that airplane can get off the ground.
Those are good shots, taken at just the right time.
Good shot! We really are pretty much back to normal after the paralysis of the pandemic years, aren't we?
