Hi Niek,

FRA is always nice, thanks for sharing.

One point of feedback, it seems some of your pictures are a bit yellowish and could have used a bit of white balance correcting in Photoshop/Lightroom.

Regards, Anton.

Pre-Covid, Lufthansa was flying to KSAN with A343s. One of these days we're supposed to get A350s (or Dreamliners--either way its win-win for us). Of course, they have to restart the service first, right now the closest LH flights are to/from LAX. Fingers crossed.
