Then and Now – Viking Twin Otter

This is a regular series of blogs about photographs of the same place taken years apart. I quite like those Then and Now comparison photographs that you see in books or on the Twitter or Facebook.  The first of the posts in this series was of a council building in Manchester.

I always thought I should give then and now photographs a go. However what I have started to notice is that I have been doing Then and Now photographs unintentionally over the years and have been taking photographs of the same thing or place from the same view or perspective years apart.

When I depart or arrive at an airport I usually take a photograph of the plane I am about to fly on, or just flew on. Last week I flew into Glasgow Airport and as I disembarked from the plane, next to the EasyJet was a LoganAir Viking Twin Otter, which is an interesting looking plane. So, I took a photograph of the plane using my iPhone 13.

Checking on previous visits to Glasgow in my photos app I found this photograph of the same LoganAir Viking Twin Otter. I had taken this photograph departing Glasgow in November 2023 using an iPhone 13.

Not the same perspective, but I took this photograph in November 2022 also with an iPhone 13. Same plane though.

Then and Now – Glasgow Airport Again

This is a regular series of blogs about photographs of the same place taken years apart. I quite like those Then and Now comparison photographs that you see in books or on the Twitter or Facebook. I always think I should give them a go. However what I have started to notice is that I have been doing Then and Now photographs unintentionally over the years and have been taking photographs of the same thing or place from the same view or perspective years apart. 

I posted a Then and Now photograph I had taken at Glasgow Airport in November 2022, I had also taken another photograph on the same day, which was, you guessed it, very similar to one I had taken four years ago.

I took this photograph upon arrival Glasgow Airport on April 9th 2018, It was the view out of a window on the way from the arrival gate to the exit.

I was back up in Glasgow on the 14th November 2022 and took this very similar photograph.

It was not a planned copy shot, I just wanted to photograph the plane.

However what I have started to notice is that I have been doing Then and Now photographs unintentionally over the years and have been taking photographs of the same thing or place from the same view or perspective years apart. 

I took this photograph upon arrival Glasgow Airport on October 20th 2017. It was the view out of a window on the way from the arrival gate to the exit.

I was back up in Glasgow on the 14th November 2022 and took this very similar photograph.

It was not a planned copy shot, I just wanted to photograph the plane.

Airport photographs

I started to realise that this week that when I fly I usually post a photograph to instagram of the plane I flew on. But not any old photo, usually I have taken it from a process using the Snapseed app.

This was the photo I took this week in Edinburgh.

Looking from my archives I found these other photographs on my Instagram feed. Continue reading “Airport photographs”
