    "May The Force be with Blue" over the fence



    And for the boys, take a look at the hottie on the lower right... She was simply delicious (her friend, not so much)... oh yeah, the plane is nice too.

    Tokina 11-17mm Zoom Fisheye, great little lens. CA up the ying yang but I use it mostly for Panorama work. Fits in nicely at Maho for these kinds of shots. It is a DX lens but works on Full Frame (FX) after 15mm or so.


    another look at the pla... err, the hottie

    Manny, I want to see the shots of the bizzers! I'm tired of the same old US Airways/Insel Air over the fence shots.
    Let see what oligarch's made their way down his year!

    OK, here are three... thanks to Cary for the Silver bird... I may have missed it if he didn't tell me it may be leaving. HE almost missed it himself :-)

    And the MAJORITY of traffic is NetJets

    Yesterday. And didn't just come in, but came in low and in full sun. So sad that I didn't get a single BBJ. Next year I will be back, with better luck, and the 24-70 II

    I am sooooo looking forward to planning a trip to SXM this year....

    Just out of curiosity, what do the flights in Liat or Insel over to St Barts or the other islands cost from SXM? Would be interested in taking at least one of those if there for a week.

    Keep'em coming brother! Nice to see how that Tokina lens worked for SXM on that A340.

    Steve .... that puddle jumper to Saint Barts, I believe is about a 15min or less flight. As far as what it cost I think Cary may know.

    Winair to St. Barts is around $130-$170 R/T, when booked in advance.

    Thanks Cary! If i go for a week i want to spend a day at St. Barts spotting there. Plus it looks like one heck of a landing to experience.
