Dawn Patrol over Minneapolis

Got up early Friday and dragged Peter Fruehling along in the RV-6 that he flies while building his RV-7. Let's just say Peter can work some magic with his Canon. I am under his his tutelage and continue to be in awe of what he can do.

The color at sunrise had to be seen to be comprehended. We just got lucky with the weather, and I got lucky on my shots, but Peter's shots are works of art.

Me flying thru the atmosphere of Mars by Peter:


Here is one I took of Peter in the RV-6:


There was funky haze layer that reflected the the glow of the sunrise as the full moon shone through from the west when I snapped Peter in the RV-6:


Finally one of my RV-9A by Peter that continues to amaze me. The full size image clearly shows the individual LEDs in my position light:

Gorgeous Pete!

Peter (via Pete), outstanding!!!!

With your permission I'd like to use your picture as the November Wallpaper Calendar.

Email larger version to 'dougreeves at vansairforce dot net' if you're OK with it (I have another photo I can use and completely understand if you'd rather not).

Great shot, regardless....you really nailed those.

Man Peter! Those are spectacular!

Real cool. I presume some of those colors have been enhanced by all the smoke from the western fires.

Nice! Keep up the good work!
