out for an early drive

i tried to get the morning mist as the sheep wandered about

i was afraid of blinding the pilots and then the cops would be at the door...

Do what I do in that situation... Hide behind the couch and when they knock, tell them in a high pitched voice, "There's nobody home."

The way the planes were laid and the size of some of them, it was impossible to get them on their own. the helicopter flew by right after i shot the grasshopper, settings must have been ok. All the shots at the Air Base were from my 18-105.

roy, could you walk up to the outside exhibits?

 

[Roy1961]

Yes. You just couldn't climb onto them. They had cockpits made up for the kids to sit in and turn all the knobs and switches
