Dec 05, 2010 10:13 | #18 I need to borrow that winch. I've got a virgin Grand Esprit that I built in the early 80's but never flew because I never got around to building a winch. not long after building the glider I moved to other interests. I'm almost finished building the Amigo II that has been sitting on a shelf all these years too, but I'm going to build an electric power pod for it. A skill is developed through constant practice with a passion to improve, not bought.

Great capture on the boat flipping, was it OK or did water effect the radio / power plant? Have any pic's of that Grand Esprit? I'm a Dodgson Designs guy, but won this plane in a raffle so had to fly it. You can see my Windsong on the ground in the left lower part of that picture...

Here are a few I have captured over the years. Mostly done with a 50D and a 70-200 F4L. Just ordered a 100-400L to help with some reach issues I am having. I have rented the 100-400 a few times, on one occasion for the Red Bull Air Race in Monument Valley, and really found it to be a stellar "Airshow" lens.

Hillbille Senior Member 579 posts Likes: 177 Joined Nov 2010 Location: California More info | I am beginning to like this type of photograph.  As this gets everything I want to show into the photograph without any photoshopping! These are very difficult to get - right - and I admit I am a rank amateur at doing it. I do not do it the way some would and I do not retouch so these are just natural. But these type are getting to be my favorites even though they are not what I think are my "best" photos they capture the Mountains in the background - clear and in focus, the airplane flying through the frame at speed, and the pilot in the foreground. I really like that I captured all these elements in one shot.
