A380-800 at Paris Airshow 1680x1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Hello!
Here's Pieter from Belgium.
2 weeks ago I went to the Paris Airshow.
I've seen Rafale, Eurofighter, F18, F16, C130, C27 and the A380-800!
This was the highlight of the show.
Due to the great distance between the airplanes and the audience, I couldn't take decent pictures of the fighters with my 200 mm lens.


If you want to know how big the A380 really is, imagine an appartment building that is doing a low speed pass at 1000 feet.

Last weekend I went to the Biggin Hill airshow near London, I'll post some pictures soon.

F18C Hornet Over Afghanistan 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Up close and personal here with the F/A-18C Hornet on an air-to-ground mission over Afghanistan. Excellent shot.

When I see a great shot like this, I get inspired to do more photography.

C-17 Short-Field Landing 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Being a pilot myself, I can certainly appreciate the skill needed to do short-field landings. If you throw an unimproved landing strip into the mix, that's quite a task for both plane and pilot.

The C-17 was designed with this type of landing in mind, but it's still amazing to behold.

F-16C Up Close and Personal -- 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Great shot here of the F-16C Fighting Falcon. Nothing like this fighter jet in the world. Hard to imagine that one day the USAF will be all F-35s and these beautiful planes will be history.

I've done a little more enhancement/artistic stuff with this shot so I'm putting it in the artistic category.

C-130 Pilot at Sunrise 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

I suppose it doesn't get much better than to be flying early morning and catching a beautiful sunrise. The only way to improve upon it is to be in an F-16... But hey, somebody has to fly cargo. :)

Planet Earth From Space -- 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Here is absolutely stunning Planet Earth wallpaper. The original was taken from the NASA archive from the most recent Space Shuttle mission to fix the Hubble.

The original was great, but with some Photoshop work, I think it went from great to stunning. I've got it on my desktop and just stare at it mesmerized.

Be sure and pass the link on to your friends.

F-16C CAMO Fighting Falcon 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Yeah, I can't get enough of the camo F-16's. Some of the sweetest fighter jets I've seen. Nice backdrop too (over Alaska).

Navy F/A-18F Super Hornet 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

This is a great shot of the F-18F Super Hornet from the Navy's VFA 103 squadron (Jolly Rogers).

Gotta love the grime on Naval aircraft...

C-17 Globemaster III on Ramp 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Check out this shot of the C-17. Great framing with the taxiway and sky. Love it.

Just read today that the F-15 Eagle demo team completed their final demos ever. Can't believe it. Guess it's time to the let the F-22 do the heavy lifting now.

Seattle Museum Of Flight 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Last week my wife and I went and visited the Seattle and Vancouver BC area. If you haven't been before, I definitely recommend taking a trip there. You won't be disappointed.

While we were there, we visited the Museum Of Flight. This is one of the best aviation museums you will find in the US. The aircraft displays were awesome and they even had an Concorde you can walk through.

I made a widescreen wallpaper out of one my photographs. Hope you enjoy it. With Seattle being the home of Boeing, you'll find a ton of aviation related adventures to enjoy.

We also took time and went on the Boeing Everett Factory tour (where they build 747s, 767s, and the new 787 Dreamliners). Seriously, if you're up here, take the tour. My wife thought it was the best tour she's been on. I ended up buying a Boeing T-shirt and a 787 1/200 scale model. Sweet!

Off to Seattle and Vancouver

Hey all, quick note. I'm off for an anniversary trip with my wife. We'll be heading from Florida to Seattle WA. I have two aviation related things to do there. I'm going to visit the cool aviation museum and tour the Boeing facility. Woohoo. After Seattle we are heading up to Vancouver BC.

It's my first time in the Northwest area so I'm really looking forward to it. I'll be back May 3rd. Have a great week.

Here's a shot of a French Mirage 2000 fighter jet that flew in for a Red Flag Alaska exercise. Enjoy!

Space Shuttle Discovery Prepares To Dock 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Sweet shot of the Space Shuttle Discovery as it prepares to join up with the International Space Station. Even though the shuttles are old will soon be retired, what they do is still as amazing as ever.
