I was wading out in the lake to get an angle for the background you see here. After coming back in to shore I was reminded it was gator mating season

Just looked at this entire thread. Great photos, everyone. I especially liked the ones of the Blue Angels and the cool "lake effect" software. I am going to check that out for myself.

Keep up the great work, everyone!

Default Pike's Peak Cog Railway

These are from June of '03. Last outing with 35mm film. We went to the top of Pike's peak in one of these. Really a cool ride more ways that one. The plan was to hike up. Snow and ice in the middle of June gave this ole FL boy other ideas.

Wish what were taken at the top had came out. Camera got cold and went on strike. It was a very moving experience to see 360° from the top. With a fresh coat of snow and ice. The plan was to ride up and hike down. Now I can be crazy but not crazy enough to slide on solid ice from 14,000 feet up to the bottom. No, not this country boy! My bottom was not created for such foolishness.

Here is the plane that landed (and took off) while I was trying to get a picture of the runway.





I have always wanted to learn to fly, and we have an aviation college right down the road. I may just check into that....

Just make sure they understand that you want to learn how to land too...
We would miss your photos...

I have a computer flying program and it is really easy to take off and to fly all over the world. Its the landings that seems to be my problem. I tend to have more of a quasi controlled crash. I usually end up in the general area of the desired airport though.
