Little runway required

Yesterday [Saturday] was a little breezy [though not particularly windy for Wellington]. I was waiting for an Air NZ-operated Airbus A320-232, ZK-OJC to depart on runway 34.

What I did not expect was for the aircraft to be airborne barely past to taxiway A8 [departing on runway 34], as seen in the first of these photos! The other A320's I saw yesterday took off closer to taxiway A4, so I'm guessing this one was very lightly loaded!
