Great shots!

It's hard to realize just how big the H-4 is until you're inside (or underneath)...I remember seeing it when it was in Long Beach. We used to go down and visit the Queen Mary and hop across to see the 'Goose.

I'm glad it's in an environment where it'll be cared for.
 
Took the wife and kiddo to the Fort Worth zoo yesterday. They had a sign on the cashier's window saying that the herpitorium is closed until a new exhibit opens in Feb 2010. Pissed me off, I always love taking pics of snakes and lizards and frogs and stuff! Also decided I need a new lens. My Quantaray 70-300mm has been a good lens for the last 15 years, but its taking forever to focus, and pics taken at anything greater than about 80mm have a very washed-out, contrasty look. I'm doing waaaaaaaay too much Photoshop touching up. Anyhoozle...here's a few shots that either came out okay, or were salvageable via Photoshop.

One of the nice things about having a neighbor behind us who maintains (sorta) rose bushes, is that I get to take pics of roses and don't have to leave my yard. The bad thing is the branches that grow through the fence and snag me when I'm mowing.....I'm gonna trim them one of these days, since they're in my yard! Anyhoo...enjoy. Nothing special, no major digital adjustments done.
