Nice one Chris. Ever get the radomes re-coated (or whatever's on them)?

The Radomes are coated in a rubberized material called RAM coating.  They fade just like paint but are rarely replaced unless it's ripped or torn in any way.  Usually an aircraft will go to paint and the entire jet will look shiny and new but the Radome will still look like crap.

Great catch Joe. Vapor in Tucson is really rare.

I want the porch of my retirement home to have this view.
