Life at 40 thousand feet (or 400)

[jack russell]

2 from a recent trip .. handhelds for fun .. OOF .. I just like the contrast ..

40,000 feet



somehow 400 feet doesn't look near as safe ..

Wow love that first one was this on it's max zoom ? and the second I do believe you are right and for some reason I sang MASH's theme in my head lol

[kxvet]

Nice job! Helicopter looks great!

[mpascal]

That shot of the jet is really great. The trails are wonderful, and I see what you mean about the safety factor. TFS

Yep, 40,000 does look safer than 400...who woulda thunk it?

Come fly with me, lets fly lets fly away, if you can use, some exotic booze theres a bar in far bombay, come fly with me, well fly well fly away

And it would probably take copious amounts of booze, exotic or otherwise, to get me up in either of these, I don't do aeroplanes, great pictures as always Ian

We were boating in the first and I had the camera on landscape so it was open for everything to be in focus as best as possible .. we were doing the officer's lounge thing on the dock ..

Hey Cathy, I dont know if I had it zoomed or not, it was crystal clear and the shooting was easy
