One of our airlines Dash-8 Q400 was recently painted in a "retro" style..in the way planes were painted 40 years ago in the airline..being a Captain on these my boss asked me to grab my camera and take some (better) pictures than the media takes..well I had several advanteges..great TAV mode which I set to 1/500 to make sure the propellers didn't "stop" on the pictures, I had the connections to go to as near to the the active runway as it was possible..and moreover I was able to change the colors the sad misty colorless weather produced into colors..

..and the RAW buffer is amazing!!!








ooh..the most difficult part of the job:





K-5...great great great....
