Few photos
 

These are just a few photos I have from traveling around in a 172. Unfortunately photobucket reduces the size so much that ya kinda lose the quality of the pic, but enjoy! (I've probably taken 1000 photos of random places...lot of neat ones)


This is downtown Dallas

Just east of Oakland, heading up to Petaluma, CA (with my prop in there)

Looking at the San Francisco Bay.

The next three are down in the LA Basin. Malibu, then the Hollywood sign, and then a neat picture of the marine layer.

Great Photos!

That is one hell of a tailpipe!!!

What is it for? I have flown planes with the high performance exhaust, and they add a slight amount of power/noise.
But that thing is huge! What is it for?

I think I have tailpipe envy :~

I think it's a photography plane. The tailpipe extension keeps the camera lense port clean. Correct me if I'm wrong, Imperial.

I don't know anything about tailpipes, but I like your photos, especially the ones of the bay. Thanks for sharing them.

The talented Contrails went and moved to the east coast on me so my local photography supply is dwindling.

Ok, well I am nothing like contrails (with my 4 megapixel camera and my barely ameture photographer skill), but I have lots of good pictures of the bay area. I will post some from time to time. Here is a good one of the city from Marin.

And all my pics look better full size. How come I have to shrink them to about 600x450 to get them to 120kb before I can post them. How does everyone else post full size pics????
