When I track the tail number on the AN124 it (FlightAware)
gives me a flight from several years back.  How are you tracking it?

John, in the heads-up section of the members board, the flight track should still be there.

THAT'S NO MOON.  IT'S A SPACE STATION.

ANNYONG!

One of two ex-ROKAF Hawk Mk. 67s that came through Willie this morning.  Can't remember the last time I shot against the light out there.

THE FOREHEAD

Rainy skies worked out this morning.  I shot it on Monday evening, and the light was great, but there was this out-of-control glare spot from pretty much every angle.  Went this morning to try again and had this awesome softbox effect - no backlighting, no glare, and great contrast against the wet tarmac and dark sky.

Very nice Steve....  Gotta love monsoon season for the clouds and vapor trails.
