Sunday Stills - Numbers (And Then Some)

Yesterday I volunteered to help with the Young Eagles day at the Cynthiana Airport. I originally had a desk job, but the person signed up to take photographs asked to trade jobs and I jumped on it. I love airplanes!



I took lots of pictures of excited kids, but also spent some time trying to capture other shots, especially moving planes, following the plane with my camera so the plane stayed sharp while the background showed the movement. Not too dramatic on take off and landing, but if you wait until they are in the air...well blue sky looks the same moving or not ;-).



I also wanted to capture a plane taking off next to the tractor and finally got one - hard to time. Yes, the air strip in in the middle of a cornfield :-).



Look at the exhaust trail.



There were 10 really cool planes flying yesterday, but this one became my favorite. Why?



There's our farm!!! See the three small run in sheds? That's how I spotted it.



I've circled the perimeter.

There were only two horses out - Hickory and T-Bone. Hank and all the sheep were inside, cashed out in front of the fans. Saint Tim and City Boy were out on the river and couldn't wave to us from the back yard. Oh well. Maybe next time ;-).



I like the reflection under the wing.

The whole day was super fun (I'd participated in a Young Eagles flight as a kid), the flight was AWESOME (Janbaby was with me :-) and I can't wait for next year!

For more Sunday Stills...
