Yeap, same caliber.

I haven't posted in here in a while, a LOT of great photos have been lately, way too many to commenton individually so I will just say, GREAT work everyone!

Here is one from today, so far the whole set looks good but I just processed this one for a "teaser" for the couple.

Tiff, Your Senior portraits are very good, as always.
Jay, Nice old Ford Tri-Motor. Do you happen to know the history on it? Looks like it could be the one that used to be based in Vegas, sans the rainbow paint.
Ingardj, Great shot of that lil Olympus.
Alejandro, Very nice low key portrait.

Mike, The first one looks like the money shot to me.
Naturalworldphotograph​er, That architectural shot taken through the water drop is "very" well done. Kudos.
A "lot" of great images here folks. Keep it up.

Hiya Bruce...

That Tri-Motor belongs to the Planes of Fame folks and lives at their annex at the Valle (Vi-yay) Arizona airport (40G for you AirNav types...)

Found this additional info:
74-N414H-5ATC-1929-Ford Motor Co.-Twin Otter International Ltd, North Las Vegas. Was once on floats. No longer taking Grand Canyon Tours. In several movies. Used for type ratings. Has standard airworthiness cert. Currently 5-AT-74 is owned by Scenic Airways president John Seibold and is presently on loan to The Air Museum Planes of Fame. 5-AT-74 can usually be seen at the museum's satellite museum in Valle, Arizona. Registered 10/28/85 per AIRPAC Plane cd. Photo. 1/16/03 This Photo courtesy of Bill Larkins, author of "The Ford Tri-Motor". The photo was taken by him. The information which follows was received from John Siebold on 1/9/03. Mr. Siebold purchased the airplane from Chuck LeMaster in Kansas a couple of years before his N9637 was damaged in a windstorm. For a while, he had both flying around the skies of Las Vegas promoting the city and their Grand Canyon Sightseeing airline, Scenic Airlines. It is still licensed and flying and resides at the Planes of Fame Museum at Grand Valle Airport (40G). Bernie Godlove, at one time was senior pilot #1 system wide for United Airlines, had over 1000 hrs flying N414H; many United captains obtained their type ratings in the Ford from Bernie. Currently, his son Bryan, also a United captain, my son Scott and Steve Hinton Pres., Planes of Fame, are the only pilots flying it. 1/20/03 Mr. Siebold just supplied us with this new Photo of N414H in all its Scenic Airways glory, rainbow and all.
As of Nov. 22, 2003 Ford pilot John Dillon reports that following the succesful completion of 2003 National Air Tour, plus other passenger-flying activities, N414H has been put on temporary static display at the Commemorative Air Force Museum, Arizona Wing, at Falcon Field, Mesa, Arizona. Photo From Bob Westinicky.

The part about being at Falcon Field in Mesa is not correct. It does not reside there.

Nice OD 17. I have a 19 and a 27 (both black), but no 5D images of either. Might have to take a couple.

This was the link I found Bruce. Map and descriptions of "Where Are They Now?"

Can't vouch for how accurate nor recent it is though.
