It's the early half of 2017 when I found the "Lane of Planes" (called "Lane 180" for the rest of this article), which led me into the world of aviation photography.
開始注意到飛機巷,應該是2017年的上半年,剛換了新相機不久,想試試它拍飛機的能耐,住台北最方便的還是去松山機場。就上網搜尋了拍飛機的景點,然後就一頭栽進航空攝影的世界。
In comparison with other photo-shooting spots like Bin Jiang Market and Air Force One Restaurant, situation in Lane 180 is much worse. The ground is uneven and the space is compacted. Parking cars or motorbikes around it is far from convenient. And make no mistake, you can always find dogs' shit here. So please be careful not to step on these "landmines".
和濱江市場頂樓陽台與空軍一號景觀餐廳相比,飛機巷堪稱「環境惡劣」。地不平、空間狹窄,停車極為不便,走動時還得小心不要採到地雷(狗大便)。有親戚就笑我在飛機巷拍飛機,無疑是「腳踏"屎"地」。
But I, along with other aviation-crazy photographers, still love to come to Lane 180. Our reason is simple. It has the shortest range from runway (about 100m). That's roughly half of the range in Air Force One Restaurant and one-third or one-forth of that in Bin Jiang Market. And above all, you can't find better vision in other places.
