The dream chasers

From when I was a boy I grew up keenly interested in any human-made object that moved, particularly aircraft.

Exercise books and any other scrap of paper I could find were thus covered in my fancifully drawn pictures of aircraft, cars and steamships. In recent years I have got to know others who share my keen interest in aircraft, and that has developed into a passion for taking photographs around our local airport, Guangzhou Baiyun. There is nothing at the airport we have not snapped, be it aircraft, buildings, the runway, taxiing areas and aprons, always considering such things as direction and light affected by the angle of the suns rays as it rises or sets. At the northern end of the runway is a mound about five meters high and the size of a football field. For the casual onlooker it may seem to be little more than a patch of dirt, but for us it provides the perfect vantage point as we chase our dreams.
