On Tow
Visible under the glider, the city of Lausanne on the shores of the Leman Lake and the Swiss Alps in the background.
Photo taken with a Pentax K5 camera at 1/500 sec, F 25, focal length 140mm. No other modification than reduction of the original file to under 1 MB.

First Flight
Kyle Franklin leaving the ground on the first test flight in his new one-of-a-kind aerobatic biplane Dracula. Believe it or not, it sounded even better than it looked.
Adjusted color, cropped, and resized to fit upload requirements and applied unsharp mask filter.



Obsession on Take-Off
Taken at Warbirds Over Monroe Air Show (a.k.a. Warriors and Warbirds Air Show).
Nikon D7000. Cropped. No other digital manipulation.

No manipulations, but downsized. Shot on my Motorola Droid.


Heater Not Required
At the Caesar Creek Soaring Club in southwest Ohio (2OH9), flying is scheduled year-round, which may require appropriate clothing.
Photo as shot. Kodak DX6490.

Out Before the Storm
Everyone was trying to take off from Heiner Field in Bedford, Wyoming before a thunderstorm arrived.
