This is a 1280 wide of the SLAM-187 as he was climbing out. The setting
sun made for a nice warm lighting.

Your turn, John--where's that end-of-the-runway spot you were using?

That late afternoon light is often a photographer's dream in terms of
color, shadow, etc. Nice, nice picture!

Standing on the east side of the perimeter road at the departure end of
the OSH R27 centerline.

I feel like an idiot. I know that spot very well, but I assumed the
runway was 18/36, even though the sun would only cover the plane in
that way on a westbound takeoff. Duh!

Very nice shot! :D
