Afterglow

Andrew Jackson (Savanda Action Photography) of Williamsburg, VA

While waiting on pilot John Williams to return on my daughter's maiden ultralight flight, and envious she was stealing my flight time, I wandered around Jamestown Airport looking for friendlies to pose. This Vag is a beautiful bird, even at night.

Shot with Nikon D700, 70-200mm 2.8 ELNS using remote flash and PW triggers. No Photoshop except to add company logo watermark.
