Just the observation that I realized a dream, I had a ride on it in that day.

Yogis will appreciate this one. Just trying to post once a week atm as life is settling down a bit in the new town, new job, recycled lifestyle.
The second oldest operating C-130 in the world departs Fort Worth Meacham Airport after a quick tech stop. This Hercules was originally delivered to the US Air Force in 1955 as 55-0008. In 1972, 55-0008 was one of 32 ex-US Air Force C-130As that were given to the South Vietnam Air Force (RNVAF) as part of Project Enhance Plus. They flew sorties out of Tan Son Nhut Air Base near Saigon but in 1975, the base came under intense aerial bombardment by North Vietnamese forces including some defecting RNVAF pilots. 55-0008 was one of 15 C-130As that managed to escape Tan Son Nhut Air Base and fly to U-Tapao Military Airfield in Thailand. 47 years later, it's still its keep. A true testament to this incredible machine!

I took the picture with the new Iphone XS. The bokeh is amazing! Please leave a comment and tell me what you think.
Went to the LA Tattoo Convention over the weekend. It's funny how we perceive things. As I walked around there were these heavily tattooed men and women everywhere... and I think we have these preconceived notions of who they are... and yet it was the first time I have ever gone out shooting when "everyone" I asked to take a photograph of said yes... and said yes with a smile. Live and learn.

There is a man in Marfa named Paul Graybeal who runs a gemstone and lapidary shop. This able fellow has crafted me custom baubles in the past, but this one is the greatest. Marfa agate in opalescent shades of deep blue and black, inlaid in a sterling silver triangle. This one will be part of the inheritance.
