Trying my hand at aviation photography.  But it is aerospace related!

Cool deal!   Hit up your local airshows; they are always good for aviation pictures.  Here's a few of mine:

That airframe's new home is the 188th TFW in Fort Smith Arkansas, and it is parked 500m from our squadron HQ!

Here is a photo of exhaust from a missile launch at Vandenburg AFB, as seen from Bakersfield.  I shot this about 7-10 years ago when I still lived in So Cal.

The shots I posted here were shot with a 100-400 L IS lens.
