At our new home we live on top of a hill/ridge at the end (or beginning) of the flight path, so we see lots of 172's and Cherokees and Bonanzas - the runway is short so no "big" stuff - except the occasional Texan. I like it a lot! Maybe instead of a motorcycle I should get a plane?NotClauswitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14358707844087117280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-24391878790546278502014-05-18T19:50:34.545-05:002014-05-18T19:50:34.545-05:00Awsome picturesAwsome picturesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-4451432705255683732014-05-18T18:54:50.837-05:002014-05-18T18:54:50.837-05:00I had out first blogshoot there three years ago.

I don't use a mount though--whichever hand is free at the time (usually the throttle hand) just points the camera and hits the fire button a few times whenever I see something I want pictures of. I usually get one or two that can then be cleaned up on the computer when I get back to the Lair.Murphy's Lawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17164780742334950772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-18697140875289812132014-05-17T13:56:07.511-05:002014-05-17T13:56:07.511-05:00How about some specifics on your picture taking? ...How about some specifics on your picture taking?
