Being a pilot myself, I always love to see aviation pictures. But this one, Melbob, is especially beautiful with those "backlit" clouds and the strip of landscape below (too bad, though, you cut the cars in half ;-)) Very nice composition, anyway! -- db.

Thanks Kelly, I had the G7 for a year now replaced it with the G9. I used the in-built ND filter in this shot.

Pops, no, this is the real deal, the pilot was showing off the ability to do tight almost stall turns and land in a short distance. ~ Regards Bob
