Really like the offset shot and the lighting is excellent. Very nice Joe.

Thanks Harvey!  Lighting was poached on this one.  Rich Cooper and Steven Comber were lighting it up for a side-on shot.  I was just walking by on my way to shoot something else, but I really liked the mixed lighting on this when seen from the front, so I set up my camera and shot for as long as Rich and Steven were doing their thing.

THE LOOMING TOWER

Kind of a throwaway shot that I thought I'd take a chance on.  Only thing I don't really like is the chromatic aberration.  Couldn't get the right mix of sliders that got rid of it on both the nose and the tail, so biased it toward getting the nose clear.  Any suggestions on how to attack that problem to clear the CA at both ends of an image?

Day or night, one of my all-time favorite PASM shots. Terrific work Joseph.
