20090521 - TITTC: Above and Below

For the TITTC: Above and Below

Hmph, a bit of a pathetic entry. I had it all planned out and they CANCELLED!!!! They were going to do some 'marching about stuff', so I was going to get a shot of that from our roof, hopefully with some 'flying about stuff' going on overhead, or at least some impressive cloudy type stuff.
I don't think they can have had all the facts - how could they cancel on me???!!!! Bah.

So there you have it, a hairy-plane below, soon to be above :o(

Beautifully done!
Laura Sebastianelli24-May-2009 13:27
cool shot! great comp and color
Ray Rebortira23-May-2009 23:34
Great shot, but were you really expecting them to reveal military secrets?
Inga Morozoff23-May-2009 16:29
Still a great shot though.
Barbara Heide22-May-2009 10:07
nicely composed despite your deception...

Thats the fun of the challenge, you never know what you're going to get.
Nice shot anyway Phil
carolynne_w22-May-2009 04:04
I like it anyway BUT in the future, have them check with you before thy cancel!
Jola Dziubinska22-May-2009 00:38
Still you managed to interpret well the challenge theme, very nice clouds above your place :)
cits_4_pets21-May-2009 21:52
Well you got the plane above it shadow...so you got above and below! Nicw placement in the frame...pretty view
Cindi Smith21-May-2009 21:37
I hate it when they do that!!!!! How dare they cancel on you! Still a very cool shot!
Kevin Chester21-May-2009 21:15
Canceled on a day like this, what are they the RAF or a bunch of Pansies. Tut Tut, what would all those spitfire pilots say. Still a good shot. I have nothing as exiting as this at work.
Walter Otto Koenig21-May-2009 20:50
These people obviously need to get with the program and get PBase accounts, or perhaps Lee or Bev can email them next time. Nice shot anyway of the plane down and the sky above.
Laryl21-May-2009 20:37
how dare they! well that's a cool plane!
Johnny JAG21-May-2009 20:27
They obviously don't realise how important TITTC is, someone should inform Top Brass!!
Nicki Thurgar21-May-2009 20:26
What a cool place you work at though!
Doug Cruden21-May-2009 20:02
Tsk! Fly-Boys, eh? They're only out to impress the ladeez....
JW21-May-2009 20:01
perhaps it was a 'timing' issue? Nothing wrong with a shot of an airey-plane!
Máire Uí Mhaicín21-May-2009 19:48
:) You should've told those magnificent men this challenge shot depended on their flying machines!
laine8221-May-2009 19:28
You know what they say about the best laid plans.....
J. Scott Coile21-May-2009 18:54
