ABOUT ME
From an early age, aviation sparked a particular interest in me, both for its complexity and its beauty.
Plane spotting has become one of my main hobbies: whenever I have time, I grab my camera and head to the airport, where I spend hours capturing the movements and enjoying the characteristic atmosphere of this universe—from the sound of the engines to the surrounding atmosphere.
In October 2022, I decided to create the Lusitânia Air Spotting Instagram page, with the goal of sharing my work and my passion for aviation photography with the rest of the community.
I started with a Canon PowerShot SX540, but in January I invested in more suitable equipment: a Nikon D5300 with an 18-140mm lens, which I currently use.
Long story short, I'm an aviation photography enthusiast, dedicated to capturing and sharing this fascinating world.
THE AIRPORT
I currently photograph at Humberto Delgado International Airport (LPPT) in Lisbon, Portugal.
