Pilots do the Twitter thing, area photographer learns

When not out shooting fires and beer trucks hanging over guard rails on I-93 for the Herald, Mark Garfinkel likes to relax by taking photos of planes flying over his home in Winthrop. Yesterday, he noticed a 737 flying under a behemoth Airbus A380 and took a cool photo of the planes and their contrails.

Then he heard from one of the pilots of the A380, after it landed in Miami on its voyage from London.

It is said that inside every aviation enthusiast is a little child. If that’s true then it must also be true that this "child" writer feels like a kid must feel on Christmas morning.

Seriously. To capture those images while juggling cameras, lenses and smartphone, identifying potential targets, figuring altitudes, bearings and airspeeds to capture an encounter so brief. The mind boggles.
