Health benefits of aircraft photography

My back pain was getting so bad that I had no other choice but to visit a doctor. His advice? Walk it off. Basically, the suggested cure was plenty of exercise and physical activity — walking being the best one. I reasoned that it wouldn't make much of a difference whether I wander around the neighborhood or in Frankfurt, where I'd be walking in Zeppelinheim and exercising myself by photographing airplanes. So I booked a room at Staycity and took a train to Frankfurt.

And you know what? It actually worked. But here is the funny part. Every morning, I'd take a bus from Gateway Gardens to Zeppelinheim, and every single time the bus would hit the same pothole. With every jolt, my back would feel better. Of course, I did plenty of walking, and I did regular stretches and other exercises while waiting for incoming airplanes. So long story short, my back is fine now.

Needless to say, I took plenty of photos too, and I managed to capture a few interesting aircraft. It would take me a while to processed and publish them, but here's the one I liked the very moment I took it.
