Warbird Wednesday!
Originally shared by +Fly By Photography January 27, 1937 marks the date of the first flight of the Lockheed P-38 Lightning. The P-38, designed for the US Army Air Corps in 1937, features two booms containing the engines with a central pod making up the cockpit. The P-38 was the only US fighter aircraft that was in production when the US entered World War II to the end of the war. The Germans called the P-38 the Fork-Tailed Devil. The Japanese called it Two Planes, One Pilot. Over 10,000 P-38s were produced. Of that total, only 5 are still airworthy. The P-38 Lightning in my photograph belongs to Fagen Fighters World War II Museum in Granite Falls, Minnesota. She arrived at Culpeper Airport on the morning of May 7, 2015 to take part in the Arsenal of Democracy Fly Over of Washington DC on May 8th, the 75th anniversary of VE Day. "Misty Morning Arrival"http://goo.gl/z1qsd2 Delayed by weather on the way from Minnesota, Fagen Fighter's P-38 Lighting, Ruff Stuff, finally arrives at Culpeper Airport at 7:30 am on May 7, 2015, for the Arsenal of Democracy. #warbird #p38 #lightning #p38lightning #plane #usaaf #armyairforces #airforce #aviation #photography #canon #flybyphotography

Well +500px I think I like the changes you are making to your marketplace – that said I have some questions Today started off with an email from the new 500px marketplace saying someone wanted to purchase an image I had not yet enabled in my store – This intrigued me and I dove into the new marketplace to see the changes…. Here is what I posted up at 500px to try to get some clarification on image sales in their new marketplace – Pretty nice so far – Limited yes, but seems to be off to a great start.  Any opinions from G+ users? Any additional questions we should try to get answers for? Just think if Google bought 500px – holy moly I would never leave the site… ————————————————– First I have to say I really like the changes happening to the market – I just hope after having the following questions answered it will be my new location to try to sell images: #1 – Is the sale of nude images something that will remain as an option in the marketplace? This is very important to me as I have invested a top on time and effort into […]

How about helping out +Dave Rich and giving him some starter kit ideas for strobes … Think lower budget starter set that will last many years….. I said Alien Bees because they have given me a ton of great service but I am sure there are other ideas.. also how about modifiers for Family and Business Portrait work… list them up on his thread here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/115065563322811017070/posts/9rptkr9Vzpc Reshared post from +Dave Rich #Photography #Equipment #Lighting With tax time coming, and my proclivity for giving Uncle Sam interest free loans throughout the year, I would love some advice from the Photography Community here. Over the course of this year, I plan to dedicate a lot more time to learning and advancing my skill, as well as taking some photography jobs that have been previously offered to me, however, I am somewhat lacking in the equipment department, and that's where you, my dear fellow photographers, come in. I have a camera, and I know enough about them and the assorted lenses to make informed decisions that fit with my style of photography (when it concerns portrait style subjects), but lighting still confounds me. I've read the wonderful book written by +Scott Kelby (Light […]

Users of the new Samsung Galaxy Nexus
In album Let's figure out a way to share some Tips and Tricks Here are two great pages to start with: +Galaxy Nexus (Fan Page) +Android Photographers +Android +#photography I have been compiling what I have been using and weeding out on the new phone and I think I am finally getting to a point where I am starting to like where things are and how they are arranged. If you look really close at the lock screen you will see I have Special Security Protocals running…. So here are some screenshots for how I have it setup at this time.. trust me this will change….but it's attempt number one…..well attempt number 301 but who is counting.. I am never happy unless I am changing something or messing with tech. So if you have cool wallpapers, application suggestions, what folders you have decided work well and help to eliminate headaches…etc.. post them up…cases, accessories etc.. Maybe a few people with more followers, and a bunch with less than I can share this out and grab more Nexus owners to chime in… I am sure there are a pile of items I am missing… Links: Full Android 4.0 Manual: http://goo.gl/lsiuu This […]
