Looks like you went home with the smell of jet fuel exhaust on your clothes, and bad hair from jet wash. Looks like you were really close!

I opened this thread thinking, "Ha. No such thing as a plain old shot from Steve." And I was right, don't you think? Love the perspective in the first, and the wonderful composition of the last. That third one is too close for comfort! Great photos!

Thanks Hayward, it is very hard to get close as High security patrols are everywhere for our own safety, cheers Steve.
