Caught this Blackhawk doing practice takeoff/landings in the desert just south of the Apache Wash trailhead in north Phoenix. Not sure what it's all about.



And nice bird pics guys.

On Monday, 10/27, I ventured out, pre-dawn, to capture this shot.  About two minutes after this shot, they turned the lights illuminating the Washington Monument off.

Too bad the Capitol's dome is undergoing renovation, the scaffolding doesn't really help this shot.

I recently became the official photographer for Brighton Motorsports in Scottsdale, Arizona.  Brighton Motorsports is known for their vintage European and American collector cars, and they have some beautiful cars for sale.

Congrats Matt. I know that place. It's right behind the GoAz bike shop I spend way too much money at.

I spent Halloween up in Vegas for some drag racing.

I love the Pro Mod class. It's easy to see why from this pic.



As the sun goes down, the flames get better.



Also caught my first ever F-35 sighting while sitting in the grandstands.

Still a while yet before this is flying.  Mac is making good progress though.  Assembled for its 2nd weight and balance check up.
