great pictures Eric and they clearly show how dangerous it can be

You never want to lose that healthy respect for the danger. That is why it is so important to maintain your SA.

So here I am prepping for a 9/11 memorial flight and am itching to photograph something, so I set up this little artsy piece I call "Shooter's realm".

So the group of guys I fly with a real kidders, and the laughs are pretty much never ending on the ground. In the air, it's all business. Anyhoo, just for grins, I played around with the color change brush in Photoshop and created a new paintjob for Viper's Mentor, now the Hello Kitty Mentor.

LMAO...nice!!

Now if you could just figure out a way to use that for extortion...

 

[evangilder]

LOL, nah, all in good fun.

 

[Gnomey]

Nice work Eric!

 

[evangilder]

Every now and again I get a shot that I look at and think "WOW! I took that?" This was one of them. I am pretty stoked about this shot.

 

[Gnomey]

I can see why Eric! Cool shot.

You've been busy the last couple of months. Too many excellent shots to go naming them all. I enjoyed catching up in this thread.

Thanks Wheels. It's been a heck of a last few weeks. I'll be involved in another very cool shoot coming up in Oct.

I didn't see any from Camarillo. Did you make it this year? I went on Saturday the 20th but ended up having to leave early.
I got a few good pictures of the old tractors since those are what interested my dad but not very many of the planes.

Yes, I was there both days. The warbirds in the afternoon was cool, but the morning show was pretty much crap on both days. It's sad they put so much energy into that air racing thing and left too many other things with little to no attention.

 

[wheelsup_cavu]

That was one of the reasons why I left early. There was nothing flying that interested me and not much on the ground either. Sounds like I might have left too soon. I walked the fenceline and I checked out the CAF hangar a couple of times but I didn't see you around.

I was out across the taxiway, one of the many in orange vests. The warbirds were great. I would have liked to have seen the 2 Zero's flying together, but oh well.

 

[wheelsup_cavu]

That does make it a little more difficult to find you.

[GrauGeist]

Well Wheels, why not buy yourself a warbird and fly the rascal on in...then Eric will come and find you

I have four Cox hobby warbirds, a P-40, a Ju-87 Stuka, a Corsair, and a Spitfire. Do they count?

So I finally got a print sale site set up over the weekend. I am still in the process of getting things set up, but what I have so far is here:

Very nice Eric! I need to do something like that to make some extra cash. Though I'm not sure they'd sell.

 

[evangilder]

You never know until you try. You have the eye for the shots.
