Westland WAH-64D Longbow Apache AH1 ZJ230 in the hover for the finale of the AAC Role Demo at RIAT 2017.
My first posted panorama. This beauty landed about 80 yards from me so obviously I ran out with my camera.
Offshore pipe laying ship. Docked in Leith Edinburgh.
I think it looks like the set from a sci-fi movie.

Lucky shot as the pyrotechnic smoke had just fired at the right time to get dramatic background.
The disadvantage to a 150mm lens is easily apparent .... loss of detail on a tight crop like this ... I was way to far away for the 150mm to cope even with a 2 x crop factor ... Taken at RAF Wittering
The Apaches are criminal gangs from Belle Époque Paris. This term, which appeared around 1900, results from a media construction based on a set of news items. In 1902, two Parisian journalists, Arthur Dupin and Victor Morris, thus called the small gangsters and thugs of the rue de Lappe (in the 11th arrondissement of Paris) and "marlous" those of Belleville, who differentiate themselves from the underworld and thugs (notably the Bonnot gang) by their desire to display themselves/ Les apaches sont des bandes criminelles du Paris de la Belle Époque. Ce terme, qui apparaît vers 1900, résulte d'une construction médiatique basée sur un ensemble de faits divers. En 1902, deux journalistes parisiens, Arthur Dupin et Victor Morris, nomment ainsi les petits truands et voyous de la rue de Lappe (dans le 11e arrondissement de Paris) et « marlous » ceux de Belleville, qui se différencient de la pègre et des malfrats (notamment la bande à Bonnot) par leur volonté de s'afficher
The backdrop of the Superstition Mountains made this shot. I was disappointed at the poor weather conditions at the time, but as I look back now, it made for an interesting shot with the mist on the mountains. They are a bit creepy to begin with, so this just adds to the mystique!
This was just about the last stop on our SW trip before our late evening flight back to Detroit. A great trip it was, and quintessentially American.
"A helicopter with big teeth" is how I tried to describe this thing to Natty! Unfortunately, each time it flew the sky turned into a mass of grey with very little substance - oh well... can't have everything I guess!
The Apache Railway in eastern Arizona has fallen on hard times with the closing of a paper mill, its primarily source of traffic. The railway is home to a small fleet of well-maintained Alco locomotives, which has long been a favorite with train aficionados. Today, however, the railway operates over its 38-mile main line to Holbrook only about once a week. March 1, 2016, was one of those days as Alcos 99 and 81 approach the State Route 377 crossing just outside Holbrook on the return trip to the terminal west of Snowflake. The first four cars are hog feed en route to a feedmill at Mile 16. The rest of the 21-car train are empty gons for the shop for cleaning. Photo by Joe McMillan.
Okay, I know that's Dr Phosphorous on the right, and strictly speaking he's not that big, but I thought it was fun, so I ran with it.

I have been going through my old archives and forgot i had this one. I have many photographs (1000s) from my times out in Afghanistan. But this is the only one i will show, for personal reasons.
