071001_010P.jpg

It was hazy so ground photography was no bueno. I decided that some air to air work was in order. We didn't have a pilot to fly the Cessna while I shot pictures, so I did it my self with the little Canon S-70 since I could shoot with one hand. The quality isn't nearly as good as the big lens, but we were experimenting and this was adequate. We got up high (5000-6000) so we were above the haze. I got a lot of nice shots. When we do this for real, I should do a better job of filling the frame and also have time to "pose" Bloke for some much nicer shots. Anyway, I thought it was pretty cool.

Canon PowerShot S70

Honest, no derivitives or integrals were harmed in the making of this photo.

Any amount of calculus is too much; that branch of mathematics is the source of much of the world's suffering.

Rob: funny you should mention it, Bloke has that in his flying tunes he plays while airborne.

This picture would be better if it could play "Highway to the Danger Zone" by Kenny Loggins. just sayin'
