At a self storage facility where the owner collects gas station items.  He perched this model of a P-51 on top of one of his storage buildings.  Go figure.

Over Lake Pontchartrain, near New Orleans.  I'm piloting and shooting through an open window.  Two things I love to do.

Great photo! You must have a really good camera.

Savin Kuk, Durmitor, Montenegro. At above 2000 meters altitude, always nice to see a butterfly.

Thanks Jakov. Yes, I like getting close.
