I decided to dig out two shots from the winter season too, now that I've seen all those goodies! 
It is stunning actually how important weather is in our hobby. If you want a good shot, you have to plan it. Time of the day because of the sun, wind for runway(s) in use, position according to the focal length you want to shoot at, even sometimes take off performance or TOW has to be taken into account for standing in the right place. If it all works out, it is very rewarding in my opinion....and the dissappointments and the excitement make this hobby so nice, at least that's my point of view.
Still, sometimes one simply gets lucky!
In this shot, it was an ugly overcast morning, and as the time flew by, the sun pushed through and the clouds cleared. This (private!) MD-87 just only departed a few mins after the mountain got visible.... wooohoo!
Same here, or perhaps even luckier! A solid cloud cover in the entire valley, with only a small opening where the sun got to shine through about 20-30mins before sunset.... love that contrast...and that's something you simply can't plan.
Have a good day everyone!
