I'm loving the MACRO shots, Merv...wow buddy, those kick ass!

The Supermoon shot is a winner too!

 

[ontos]

Thanks guys greatly appreciated. I still have some shots of the West Coast Thunder to sort out from Memorial Day plus some shots of the Botanical Gardens at UCR, my son took me there for Fathers Day and really enjoyed it.

Great to hear from you Dave.

Cheers

Thanks fubar, greatly appreciated.

I'm just about finished with this Douglas SBD-5 Dauntless # 36, of VB-10, USS Enterprise. I still have to do some work on the ocean then she is done. I just wanted to see how it would look framed. Hope you like it.

The Planes of Fame discussion this week-end was on the Curtiss P-40N Warhawk.

Good stuff. The Dauntless burn is first-rate!

Good shots Merv!

Thank you Eric and Hugh for your great comments, it was a beautiful day for photography but it was a little hot on the asphalt.

Captured this beauty this morning, I believe it is a AH-1Z attack helicopter. I have never seen one till today, I wish I could have taken a better shot, it was awful high and a little hazy.

Still a good catch!

Thanks Dave, I was hoping to get a frontal shot, but she was coming out of the Sun, so I had to wait till it was over me .

Interesting exhausts on that one. Good detail in the photo.

 

[ontos]

Thanks Eric, the exhaust is what really caught my eye. I thought that this is no Apache or Blackhawk, I had enough time to grab my camera which is always by the door and get a closer look.
