Thanks, Chris.  Been going through older stuff and taking second stabs at it with Lightroom.  Also hitting some that were too cluttered as-is, and I'm much more confident in my cloning skills than I was back when I first shot them.

Just doing a test to see if I can link from my websight.
"You don't become a professional simply by earning certificates, adding ratings, or getting a paycheck for flying. Rather, professionalism is a mindset. It comes from having the attitude, the ethics, and the discipline to do the right thing — every time, all the time, regardless of who's watching."

August 2009 was a particularly good month at Willie.  Hoping next month is similarly awesome.

Dang.  Solid work for 1/30.  That sky has a lot of potential, looks like quite a bit of wiggle room before you hit the goalposts.

Thank you, Joe!  The sky was pretty blown-out in the original shot because of the slow shutter, but I played around with it for a little while until I ended up with this result.

I also just noticed the blur of a bird right above the number four engine.  I saw the bird in other shots I took, but never noticed it in this shot and never realized how close it came to one of the engines.
