Of all my images, this is one that I am most proud of. This plane sits up on struts near the Griffith Council offices (Griffith, NSW). I shot it on a glarey, sunny day and it looked really, really crap – plain, flat and just dull. I had a vision in my head and after months of working it, discarding it, changing it and over-tinkering with it – over and over again until it almost drove me insane, I finally nailed exactly how I wanted it to look. Its nice to look at I guess but its the small personaly victory that warms me to this.
A salute to my favourite INXS song “Johnson’s Aeroplane”. “From a small aeroplane, you can see the sea. Lots of blue, very deep blue”. This week I had the incredible luck of flying in a 4 seater plane and having my first try at aerial photography – great fun!! It was such a fantastic day and Perth was looking its best on a 27 degree spring day. Thanks heaps to Malcolm the pilot, Mum and Dad!! :))) For enquires about canvas prints, or photographic prints larger than Redbubble options, please contact me via bubblemail
F-22 Raptor during the demo at 2007 NAS Oceana airshow. This plane and it’s capabilities are nothing short of amazing. I wonder how hot that exhaust is? My art with 1000+ views

” Never, in the field of human conflict, was so much owed, by so many, to so few.” Winston Churchill, 20 August 1940, at the height of the Battle of Britain.

Adirondack Hot Air Balloon Festival Sept 2008 Fellow Bubbler Marleia Main and I went to the Festival on 2 mornings…the first morning we got there too late only to see the last of the balloons disappearing over the horizon. This morning..we made it to the aerodrome for 5am and had an awesome and exhilarating time watching the balloons inflate for take off at sunrise and then over 90 hot air balloons rise in the sky all around us. It was an amazing experience.

Sort of a bittersweet moment, apparently the West Coast Demo team will no longer perform at airshows with the F-15. To mark the “retirement” this F-15 was hosed down by two firetrucks as it returned from it’s last tactical flight demo. Nikon D300, Sigma 50-500mm.

A restored Vulcan Bomber being ‘escorted’ into the Dawlish Air Show, 20/08/09, by the Red Arrows Display Team. / This was the first time in 17 years that these aircraft have been seen together at a show. For those interested in the Vulcan, I will upload one of the craft on its own, and I will be adding a journal with a few more of the pictures on. / I will not bore you with lots of pics of the same craft. / Also, I probably will not be uploading any Red Arrows shots as there are enough already on RB.
