Thanks...you should change your undies before you get a rash!

Thank you very much... I've been working on a certain style for a while now. Think I'm nailing it.

Lets see them guys, I know the light was terrible, but there had to have been something good from each of us. I will start.

Anyone can take a picture of a whole airplane/car/person...takes some effort to make a detail not be boring. I used CS5 and Topaz Adjust to do multiple layers and blend them together. Really helped...

Had the chance to get up close and personal with a P-47 a few weekends ago. Spent a lot of timing hiding from the sun under it all alone and started looking at the little things. Here are some of...

Yes, Seattle can be a bit odd sometimes. Good shots Jeremy.

Worked it just a tad more. I like this version...Mr Bokeh is back in focus (by the way, that's the pilot getting out of his flight suit...really wish I had time to wait for him to move while I was...

Ha. Nice. I also have this eye straining version where everything but the B-25 is blurred...I'm thinking a thin strip of in-focus area across the middle and I'm there! Notice that Mr. Bokeh is now...

Did a batch process in Lightroom for the first time. Guess it's ok...but not the best. Just didn't have time for these. Also just uploaded them to Facebook, but I figured some of you would like to...

Couple other captures from the day.

Had fun this Saturday getting a sunburn and capturing images of 3 local P-51 Mustangs from the Flying Heritage Collection, Historic Flight Foundation and Heritage Flight Museum. Again, tried using a...

This is a neat little, super low to the ground aircraft. Doubles as a dog whistle too. Tried shooting with a CPL this weekend and ended up missing focus a lot.

First day out since my surgery. Did pretty good, I think. Stood at the windsock for a few hours at Paine Field with a few friends and got a few keepers! Damn 747 just missed flying through the sun...

Probably should share this one...but you guys made me. Perhaps if I just made it small it would be ok...

I know it's been a week...but I've had a LONG one. Finally done with my edits from that weekend, picked a few from my public album to show.

Cessna 310K ...

It's ok Jeremy. It was boring. Just terrible.... (feel better?)

From the perimeter road it was impressive.

It sold out before the sign-up portal on the website was even up and running! It was a great class, an awesome experience and the perfect way to open a few doors! I recommend it to anyone who is...

I had the opportunity to take the Air2Air class at Historic Flight Foundation that was given in conjuction with General Aviation day at Paine Field in Everett, WA. It was put on by Lyle Jansma by...

Round Three (back to 5/17)

This gentleman was out testing his RV-10. I contacted him after looking up his N number and finding his blog. I am supplying him with the following images with hopes...

Round Two (think these were from 5/18)

This series illustrates why we in the Northwest willingly stay here to be rained on 8 months out of the year. Springtime!
