Vintage Metal

FolioA-A30304This is an interior, available-light image from the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force in Dayton. All those aluminum surfaces were just begging to be captured in stereo. The farthest tail looks to me like a B29, but I didn’t take notes about the fighters in the foreground. Can anyone identify them for us?

Available light, tripod mounted Canon 7D. Digital to film transfer done by Gamma Tech in New Mexico. Yes, I know I mounted it backwards 🙁

Learning the Ropes

FolioA-A30303The Mendenhall glacier is in a National Forest, so commercial exploitation is expected and encouraged. One business here hikes you to the ice. There, you don crampons and helmets before setting off on an ice-trek. Four hours earlier, these folks were probably disembarking from their cruise ship. Now they’re on the glacier and about to practice their fall-arrests.

This is a cool place to live.

Tripod mounted TL120-1, most likely done on Provia 100.
