Great shots.

[Joe Copalman]

Great shots.

Seconded.  Really unique framing on the night shot.  Good stuff.

Altus -135 on final at Willie yesterday.

[CJPalmer]

Nice. How long were you blinded after that shot?

[Joe Copalman]

Thanks.  Was at 25mm and kinda-sorta squinting in anticipation (unlike 99% of my sun-crossings, this was intentional), so it wasn't too bad.  Had I been at 500mm and not expecting it, I'd probably be wearing an eyepatch today.

Same bird, different day. 

Altus training bird bashing the circuit while the 787 was out and about today:

[David Loera]

Good catch

[Jason Hyatt]

Definitely a nice catch, Dave! That is great that they're starting to put nose art on the Coppers!! Joe's straight on shot had the 'Let's Roll' nose art and this one has a DBacks piece. Very cool and nice work, buddy.

[David Loera]

I only lasted 2 hours out at Skyharbor today.
It was freakin hot

I'm surprised you lasted that long.  I stopped by on Tuesday on my way home from work and lasted about 40 minutes for the same reason.  My last two  KC-135R shots were actually taken from inside terminal 4 as I was waiting for my flight to Baltimore.  The only thing one has to deal with there is window flare and fingerprints.
