Sunday morning lazy with my first coffee and a stack of reading to scan...plans for the day include a portrait, some long arm quilting on a bird house collage, and some sewing and creating placemats. Of course there will be walks with the boy Bailey. It has warmed up and the sun is shining...still cold, but sunny. A halcyon day to be.
The open waist gunner's window affords spectacular views. One must be careful to hold onto cameras and glasses very tightly in the wake of the slipstream. This was the first time I experienced open-air flight since my ride on a Stearman many, many years ago.
View from the flight deck of the Commemorative Air Force Liberator, with a nice view of the Berlin Airlift Foundation C-54.
An early morning glimmer of blue sky before it started to rain. There were robins on the overhead wires puffed up like kernels of popcorn....and just as noisy. My art table is ready for me. Coffee in a new cup as yet to be decided on its efficiency...a square cup? And plans for the day noted in my composition journal. Fabric and paint will have equal time today regardless of the weather outside.
A low sun nicely illuminates the wing and engine of this classic Russian aircraft on a domestic flight in the Ukraine from Odessa to Kiev. The noise in the rear part of the aircraft is immense but it does give excellent possibilities.
The cowls of an Air-India Boeing 747-237B reflect the early morning sunshine over Ireland, en route to London, as the first stop to New Delhi and Bombay in 1990. This aircraft, VT-EFU (Krishna Deva Raya) enjoyed a long career with the Indian carrier before succumbing to the scrapper's torch; the cockpit section still exists somewhere in Mumbai.
The view from our Natchez Mississippi hotel room overlooking the Mississippi River. I was in heaven ... I've long wanted to visit here, and Natchez didn't disappoint.
I took this from a window bay on the 22nd floor of the Intercontinental Hotel. You can see the half-renovated Adelaide Oval and North Adelaide beyond. Adelaide Oval only looked this way for a brief period in its life.
The big western grandstand was only finished in 2010, and now the tent-like stands on the other side, as well as the red stand with the two towers, have been demolished and replaced by modern pavilions to match the western one. The red-roofed buildings in the foreground are the tennis stadium and the gym, which were not altered
Fog outside thick as pea soup. Sounds are muffled from the bluff except for the far away lone fog horn. I'm ready to start today's artwork.
Xi'an was the beginning of the Silk Road.
Xi'an, the starting point for visits to the Terracotta Army.
Climbed the steps to the top of the Clock Tower in Corralejo, Fuerteventura to take these pics, worth the climb up.
