A new acquisition at the Pima Air & Space Museum.  Actually a couple of months ago but the embargo on posting was just lifted.

A little dark, I know but the light disappeared at almost the second I took the shot.

I've been trying to get a decent lightning photo out here for years and you manage it by accident.

Hello,

I've met quite a few of the folks around here but not everyone so I thought I should introduce myself.  I've been taking photos of aircraft pretty much as long as I've known how to use a camera, though there have been a few who think I still haven't figured it out.   Anyway, after grad school I managed to land the perfect job at the Pima Air & Space Museum where I have the pleasure to work with two fellow AzAPers Andy Boehly and John Bezosky.  I hope to be able to make some small contribution to the group.  For those who are interested to look some of my better photos are up on flicker at
