Default April '08 Photo Of the Month Contest

New month and actually able to get it started on time this month. Warmer weather is moving in and there should be some good flying days coming up. Get the planes, transmitter and the cameras out and go get some great shots. No better way to break the winter blues than to get back in the air and share some photos with your friends here on the Giants.

Here is a shot that is a couple of years old but I can't win, so this is just a shot for inspiration.

I thought I would dust off the Shoestring from the winter blues and take a photo moment from my backyard.

pitviper51,
I'm glad you liked the picture. I use a Casio QV-R40, but I will be upgrading it soon.
