All beautiful shots, but the shots of the C-17 are spectacular. 8) 8) Outstanding work P51.

Britt, those pics are just fantastic! Do you mind if I ask you what kind of camera and lens you used?
For Christmas my Wife gave me a Canon rebel with a 18-55mm zoom lens, lots of fun but still learning. All my photography experience has been with film, this digital stuff is cool but now I've got to catch up.
Thanks and Take Care, Normandy
