Okay Gang
My second challenge didn't go so well.   But at the very least give me an A 
for effort if not for success, and many thanks for those who contributed 
images to both challenges...
A a lot of very cool and exciting stuff was submitted, and I hope it 
continues...
Attached is another of my failed images..  This time it was in Oshkosh about 
3 years ago.  I think you can figure out why I was snarling and spitting..

Yes, it is difficult to get a good shot of the weather monitoring equipment
when a passing aircraft trips your auto-focus.

Yeah!!!!
That's it I meant to take a picture of the equipment and not the F15 in the
background!!!
Of course it only took me 3 years to figure that out, and why do I suddenly
feel a little slow?

That was Oshkosh 2005
That F15 was a flight of 2 from Massachusetts who made a sudden
appearance at the air show. They came in I was sitting alongside
the taxiway in front of the speaker stand. What a thrill that was to see 
them do their
thing for 4 passes overhead.

You know Andrew, I don't think we ever saw your 
images from Oshkosh....at least not that I can 
recall.

I have to disagree.  I was with Andrew in Oshkosh 
and it was 2004.  Evidence attached.  : )

Lynn,
I would be more than happy to do a repost but, I have kind of a busy 
schedule for the next few weeks.   You see I still have to prepare a 
presentation and proposal for a serious paying client on Tuesday morning 
around 9:30am. followed by a practise shoot also on Tuesday.  On Wednesday I 
have two police training flights (I maybe riding in the front for one of 
them!), and another serious shoot on Sunday night.  All the while I need to 
get some sleep and work in my full time job.  The following week I also have 
several meetings planned which I have to attend with a couple of police 
departments. Oh I just found out that right in the middle of my vacation in 
September to see the NAS Oceana Air Show, there is a plane pull at Dulles 
Airport near where I live.
At the least though I can give you a flash back...
