I would love that if there are others that would enjoy it.

You got it, I think. ;)

Chris, if you just add new pics to the end of this thread, it'll get bumped and reappear at the front, which is, IMHO, better than having another sticky that would be mostly inactive.

Great pics!

Hey Chris...I'll throw my compliments in with the lot...very well done! All the way around...very well done :) As others have stated, I too am going through a really rough spot in life. Sorry I never got around to buying you that much vaunted beer...soon though buddy, soon. I have relocated to the East Coast and now live almost directly in between Udvar-Hazy and the NMUSAF. When I go to Udvar I wear my NMUSAF tee-shirt and vice versa when I go to the NMUSAF...get some strange looks :twisted:

I think the sticky idea would be fantastic for all the people who are not rich and famous like you and cannot afford a sweet camera like the one you have and those who don't live as close to the wonderful collections as you and I do. Would that be doable James? A sticky for everyone to post museum pix of any museum? Do museums frown on that sort of thing?

Nice job, MD. I especially like the black and whites with the color nose art. Cool effect !

Hey thanks man, I was just playing around with photoshop. I am really having fun just trying some new things with my camera. Glad that you guys like them.

I would like to see all of your pic. from any museum. Don't get to travel much anymore, it would be like being there through your pics. Thanks and keep up the good work.

I would keep this thread strictly the NMUSAF just for clarity's sake.

And just keep adding as you go. I think it's a great idea. I haven't been in probably 22 years and with a new baby, I don't see going anytime soon. But as soon as the boy is old enough to appreciate it, we're definitely going. Until then, keep posting! :lol:

Hey Mustangdriver,

I love that picture taken from just in front of the spinner of the P-51. That's a beautiful angle! You've got a great eye for pictures!

Cheers,

David
