CHINUK?  CANOOK?

Wish I had a more dynamic shot of this bird, but the pilot rolled it pretty far down the runway before lifting off.

That is one old C-130!  Looks great though, especially with the sun on it and the stormy clouds behind.

Definitely not my best shot, but I was determined to catch these guys leaving last night.

The sunset yesterday was around 1720, this photo was taken at 1737, and these are the camera settings:

  • F-stop: f/7.1
  • Exposure time: 1/15 sec.
  • ISO: ISO-1600

Did you get the story on this one?  Strong hunch it's an ex-Green Knights bird.

The pilot had his blinker on for ages and only committed to making this left turn after four or five false starts.   ;D
