    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Nice detail in the last shot...the first one is very cool.clap.gif

    We have lots of GBH here in northern Illinois. They seem to be able to avoid me for the most part! :D

    I love the story
    A happy ending??? L.A.??

    But seriously putting the shots together to tell a story makes the shots more interesting. I wish I could do a better job of it.

    Regards,

    Mike

    Makes me want to visit your neck of the woods. Judging by your posts here on dgrin, you're just temporarily letting them have their waymwink.gif

    Just beautiful Russ!! That Freedom at Last is my favorite because that's the flight pose I see most often around here. Only 200 or 300 yards away. :D
    Like Ric, I can't get close to those things so it's nice to see what one really looks like in a typical flight pose.

    Thanks.
