Awsome pics! Especially the one of the 8th AF airfield buildings. Just needs a silouhette of a B-17 or two and a few bicycles parked around to complete the effect.

Wonderful stuff! Thanx so much, I agree pic #2 needs maybe just a ghostly crew walking past, but really nice feel to that one :D :D :D

Nice stuff guy... thanks much!

I really like 'Preserving our Past'... that's got some atmosphere to it.

Hope you don't mind that I fooled around with one of these...

And the 'vintage' look...

I was gonna add some figures on the tower and some other stuff in the background, but got lazy...

I don't mind at all. Do you mind if I save those. I love it.

Sure thing... go right ahead, and thank you.

I call the modified image, specifically the vintage version, 'Last One In'.

The 8th AF tower, officers club, and barracks are my favorite non-airplane display at the Air Force Museum. Love that photo in the fog!

Mustang Driver .... great shots ... Were you volunteering this past weekend or just visiting?

Did you take that "before" pic of the A-17, or is it on display near the finished aircraft? I don't recall seeing it before.

I tell you what, the darkness can make it tough to get good shots, but sometimes it helps you get a few great ones.

I was visiting. My friends wanted to take a few days trip for my birthday. So we did that and a couple other things.
