Congrats on the "Picture of the Week", though!


Thanks...at least I have some nice pics to put on my wall if I choose. I might try to get one or more of the pilots (Skip, etc) to autograph the pics at Oshkosh or elsewhere, if they do that kind of stuff. Bob Carlton signed my pic when I met him at my airport a few weeks after I shot his Super Salto (EAA.com Pic of the Month desktop computer calendar, June '12). He told me that he had the pic on his computer at the office in NM - that was pretty cool, I also gave him a copy of the pic. If you have FB, my avatar is the POTW I got from October '11 from AvWeb.com

Well, we had a substitute judge (illness) who did a presentation on travel photography as opposed to the WOW factor. Each of my shots got 'shot down' in the first round. The three winners were all B/W prints - some dark cave-looking pic, a blurry bicycle (taken during a local race) and an architectural abstract. The Red Bull was too centered, Skip Stewart was too busy (people, flagpoles, ribbons) and the Team Aeroshell should have been aiming up. Well, as he mentioned at the end...it's one person's opinion.

For the AeroShell picture, obviously the "judge" didn't know much about aerobatic sequences! Live Long and Prosper.... John

I'll try. Don't drink Romulan ale...it gives you a stellar hangover! (haha) :) Kirby Chambliss said via FB that he'd autograph my pic if I mailed it to him (I didn't find an address) or see him at one of his airshows. Maybe Aeroshell can do the same.
