Great photos Jeff. I hope that's not the pilot in the yellow boots getting ready to exit the bird :rofl:

It takes some kind of fortitude to do what those two pilots in the top shot are attempting.

Well Saturday will be another chance for morons idiots and bafoons to show their stuff. I will be prepared as I am taking my monopole named fido, and possibly my faithful guard wife they'll not dare invade our space. I do hope the rules include biting scratching and kicking as Fido is very good at all of those..

:rofl:

be well

Ed

unfortunately this is a fact of life in the birding world ,the biggest penis(lens) in the hide type always want to try and get a better shot probably based on the premise that they paid more for there gear so they can be more arrogant .
i have a very efficient way of dealing with this ,i seem to have the ability to fart very loudly on demand ,if not a few loud burps also works well ,luckily as robert can testify i have the height,bulk ,and gob to back up these actions .sad i know but a fact of life these days ,you always find these a******es that push in are the ones that won't indulge in banter with the smaller penis (lens) types that frequent the locations to .
so if your in a bird hide acting the prat and some big geezer stands next to you and lets rip introduce yourself i can be nice at times 3:)

I like this method.

My method in Ed's case is, when using a big lens step forward to just behind the left or right shoulder of said person, other wise known as prat, and when taking a shot swing the lens left or right as needed to make contact with prats head followed with an apology.

I find this tends to make them move. 3:)

Love airplanes and airshows. Quit flying when they started to make you take a check ride when you rented a plane and charged you for it in the rental. They have some pretty good ones here in Arizona.

The ones here are known as fly days, they are on Saturdays every two weeks through the summer, and allow the collectors to exercise the planes, and keep them in top shape. It is good advertisement for the museums as well. there are two museums at Paine Field in Everett Wa. at the south end of the airport one on each side of the west runway. Normally 2 planes fly from the Flying Heritage Collection, and they will often be joined by a plane from Historic Flight Foundation. Last time it was 2 Spitfires and a Hurricane. Saturday it will be the first flight of FHCs Shturmovik IL II . the party starts at noon and lasts about a half an hour with low passes and lots of great taxi shots EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HHAAAWWWWW!!!

:applause:

:thumbsup: :salute:

I've darn near knocked someone out with my 500 F4. "Oh, sorry, couldn't see you there. Would mind getting your feet off my other three cameras? Thanks very much. Oh, no, I'll just keep swinging this thing around kind of randomly so you'll probably want to move or practice ducking since I've been here all day doing this."
