A real beauty Anna, I really like the offset shot. Probably necessary at this close distance and it works well, very nice photo.

Thank you Harvey...  Just out of the frame on the lower right is a shade canopy for the airport ops vehicles.  Would have made for a great multi image pano without that shade canopy.  They had this beast parked right close to the fence line.  Great light when they park it so close.

RECURRING NIGHTMARE

Been going through some older folders lately.  Really miss seeing the Nightmares at Willie.  This shot is from back in March 2009.
