On my radio scanner, I have been hearing a new voice from the skydiver jump aircraft. Today I met the pilot, a young woman who said she will be helping them out during the winter months. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/New+Jump+Plane+Pilot.JPG.html This young woman drove the big jet fuel truck over to the Twin Otter and fueled both tanks. I've been wanting to capture this smile for some time. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Smile+1.JPG.html While filling the final tank, she kept a close eye on the truck's fuel counter. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Eye+on+the+Fuel+Meter.JPG.html I have read that the Leica 90mm makes a nice portrait lens. I'm impressed. Comments and critiques welcomed and appreciated. -- Jim Nichols Tullahoma, TN USA
