Goodyear blimp fly by

[robow]

Living just south of Akron Ohio, I get to see this thing quite often. It caught me off guard so I didn't have time to make important adjustments to the camera, when I took the pictures I had the ISO turned up to high so they are a little grainy. Also if anyone has pictures of airplanes/air travel vehicles feel free to post, I would love to see them.

[Recty]

I just took these two the other night, nothing fancy...

I took this one about a year and a half ago, it was my first ever moving airplane picture and I took it from a moving boat in a rough ocean while in Hawaii, I was quite pleased with how it came out. Now I think I could do better, but for then it was great

Those are great recty, I have wanted to go somewhere near my local airport to take pictures of planes, but I have been afraid of getting hauled off by some government goons. A friend recently told me it is OK to do though, so I plan to. Also I can't wait for the airshow in Cleveland at the end of summer.

This is no great shot, but it made me appreciate my 55-200mm lens more. With the naked eye you could not tell what color it was let alone that it was southwest airlines.
