Nice series Rob and Jay! it looks like you guys had a lot of fun. Great photos.

[yipDog]

Thanks! It was rather incredible even with the crappy weather the first day!

[Joe Copalman]

Agreed with Steve - you guys both got some remarkable shots out of that trip.

I was telling Jay that I think you guys actually lucked out with that weather in one regard - I don't think I've seen a hint of glare in any of those shots.  I know from flying with the Red Star guys previously that you don't really have a say on these flights, and for half a flight, your subjects might be backlit or throwing a crapload of glare your way.  The "softbox" effect you guys got really neutralized all that nonsense.

[yipDog]

Thanks for the kind words!

Here's one of my favorite shots showing the texture of the CJ!

[Chris V]

Awesome shots guys!! I Agree the clouds really add to the shots. Great work!
