Thanks for looking Jim.

Knowing your interest in planes, I didn't think it would be before you 
posted.

I wasn't trying to do justice to the aircraft, that's for others like 
you. :-)  I was making art, however bad it might be. ;-)

I used a 10mm on my Pentax K10D, the effect is similar to my 19mm on my R8.
