Default February '08 Photo Of the Month Contest
Sorry I'm late getting this months contest started. Blame the strange weather in Indiana this month.

Here is a photo that is related to RC aircraft. It is a different way to look at a common item that is used on many planes. Let's see if anyone can guess what it is.

Spectacular? Perhaps not, but it's not every day you see an authentic GTO Cessna in Iraq!

That's it exactly. I was just having fun with a new camera and some new toys for it.

Nikon D70, 18-55 lens, 70-300 lens, 2X teleconverter, flash, flash bracket, i-TTL cord, close up lens set, filters, filter adapter rings, PC sync adapter for studio strobe units, a couple of cheap strobes, batteries, extra battery charger, 2 4gig memory cards. Just a few toys. Now just one more lens to buy. Just trying to figure out which one to buy. The ones I'm looking at range from $500 to $1,200. Just have to save a few weeks and make up my mind.

Nothing like toys...

Nice, needs to be sharper and use less ISO, but you have killer DOF there!

Canon man here. 30D, 70-200IS F2.8L, and a bunch more. Working my way up to that 5D
