Thanks! :D

Oh ya, Love the last one.

Pretty happy with that one myself. One of those "remember to turn around and look behind you moments." ;)

Very nice as usual. I like the second one the most.

Appreciate it, thanks. Those were some serious landing lights on that airframe!

Cool shots #2 is the favorite for me!!!

Glad you like it, thanks!

Excellent! Do more!

About every 23.9 hrs I get a crack at this kind of light. It's damn near like clockwork! :lol:

All I have to say is "wow!"

Well Thank You. One word superlatives are fine with me! :D

Jay,
I'm convinced that you could make a t-shirt shot from an air cannon look great. Anything flying seems to be within your comfort zone. Keep-em coming.

There is Two people that I never see the photos of, they just do not appear in the message. Jay is one of them. I cannot for the life of me figure out why.

I dunno Jeff... I might have a hard time with the T-Shirt shot. Depends on whether or not I can stop shooting the Cheerleaders :lol::lol::lol:

Are you viewing from work? Perhaps Zen is blocked for some reason?
(You can visit the website though...) Sorry you're getting short shrifted here.

I'll have to go look at the outtakes and double check but I think it's actually an Aviat Husky.

Practice (or just plain getting outside) is a key element! ;)
