Chaity 1 Report post Posted October 26, 2005 Hey guys, lovely shots especially those taken near the hanger. Thanks for sharing the hanger shots to provide the close up shots. JK sunset shots and the lightning shot are unique. Yesterday's weather wasn't spotter friendly but did provide some great looking landscape shots. I have yet to touch up my shots and will post some when ready. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"eh azahan go check at the back galley, got caviar or not. rotten so nem mind........" then he imagined himself as a cargo captain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
