Here is an interesting airplane:

My boss and I delivered an Enstrom back to it's owner after a year long complete rebuild. In the back of his hangar he had that little jewel. It's wearing a Czechoslovakian made turbo-prop on the airframe of a Cessna 340. It's quite an interesting bird and apparently for sale.

Saw that 340 conversion a few years ago at Sun'N'Fun...looked terrible then and looks terrible now!

Not pictured:

The hole in the left wing that they are (very slowly) repairing.

Did someone take pitty on it and try to (unsucessfully) put it out of it's misery?

I think the wing got mad at an inanimate object and lost the ensuing fight.

Suicide. I see. This changes things.

I'm looking to upgrade cameras and yours looks like it does really well with outside shots. Mind sharing what kind you have?

My camera is pretty outdated. It's a Canon G5 http://www.steves-digicams.com/camera-reviews/canon/powershot-g5/canon-powershot-g5-review.html

I think it's my Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 that really does the trick http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Photoshop-Elements-OLD-VERSION/dp/B000UKBIEC

I titled this one "bad day". Nose gear failed to extend (KPIE)

Per Travis' (TFaudree) recommendation, my second lens purchase was the Pentax 50mm f1.4. Took this shot while experimenting with it. Artsy!

That converted c340 reminds me of a Speed Star:

I threw some books on the floor and ditched my work shirt too, and when I walked by them the next day, realized that they made sort of a cool set up.

Tried my hand at that fancy HDR stuff, not the greatest, oh well.

So i finally bought a new camera, a Canon EOS Rebel XSi. So far this is by far one of the best cameras i've owned, but i must admit, coming from the point and shoot world, its definitely a bit overwhelming with all the functions and capabilities this camera has.

Here's a shot i took today, while i was mapping the Ft.Lauderdale area.

I'm sure im not doing this camera any justice, but hopefully as i learn more and more about this camera and photography in general im hoping to deliver better results.
