I was quite fortunate when it departed because it banked right toward me so I was able to click a fine series of it as it came by.

Nice shot and capture Gary!

Gman!! I was about to ask how much snow you got....the rotor wash behind and below awesome shimmer..do you wear gloves w/fingers cut short at the end?? Im almost back to normal, though my camera is in the shop. Backup camera is not self cleaning so I am holding off...Cant wait to go through some photos here..7 stars for each rotor tip,,though 5 is max

Hi again, D. Many thanx for the compli, my friend. I dang sure wish we could link up here with Alien too. I have escort authority for 80% of the airport grounds (both east and west sides) and am now even cleared to drive out there. We could have an outstanding day.
Alien >> By the time I clicked this, the temp was in the upper 20s (F). Truth be told, I have 3 different types of gloves. One pair is so roomy that I can get those chemical handwarmers inside them ... and I have 5 sets of those. The bodies of my Canon cameras (I have 5 of them) all get frickin' COLD when I'm out there so I have all sorts of gear to either keep my fingers warm OR to warm them back up. BUT, no cut-out fingers. lol TY for the compli re: the pic.
