Actually had some spare time this evening so I took one of the local "puddle-jumper" Cessnas up for a little spin and some fun.

I took my camera and one lens...the fish-eye 10-18mm. Thought I would limit my options and see what I came up with. No glorious compositions here but some neat perspectives anyhow. Enjoy!

lake-city-approach
Coming up on Lake City, MN. The water is Lake Pepin (which is really just a 2-mile wide part of the Mississippi River.

lake-city-marina
The Lake City marina. Love the green plant growth.

It was a glorious evening! An incredible 75 degrees and sunny most of the day. Why can't they be like this all year round?
