I love the smell of JP-4 in the mornings. Smells,like,,,,two F-100-200 Pratt and Whitney dual spool axial flow Jet Engines hitting the third stage afterburner. Ahhhhh Bliss. Great Shot.

Andy Mueller replied
Thank you and I have to agree with you. So, that shot was taken with the D300 & Sigma 50-500mm. The shot is entirely unedited!
Per Ove Sleen
That lens is just amazing….I’ve had a look at one for my canon….very big….but man what a shot…..this is one for the think box….think I would love to have a Sigma 50-500mm
Andy Mueller replied
In fact, I know you would love one (if you require that reach, and that zoom range, which I find PERFECT) for lots of images I take. Why don’t you see if you can rent one for a couple of days before committing to purchase. Not everyone is able to handhold it, I seem to do okay with it.
Michele Conner
Wow, I can believe you can get that much clarity with a 500mm with something going that fast. Where you using a tripod? Like that it is a straight out of camera shot too. I’m kind of a purest that way… but am finding I like photoshop too.
Andy Mueller replied
Handheld Michele, with a tripod I doubt that I would be getting these, these guys are COOKING along…. I actually shot a funny sequence of a guy using a tripod …. will post it as a journal entry soon …
