The first one is this weekend with our local airport serving as their base of operations. The Airport Manager asked if I would take some documenting photos of the event. We loaded into the Kubota utility vehicle and headed out to the back side of the airport, where all of the activity was concentrated. I was busy with getting images when he received a cell-phone request to deliver some jet fuel to the troops. We headed over to their tanker and waited for our fuel truck to arrive. While the fueling took place, I took more photos, but soon ran out of subjects, so my eye fell on the large industrial-strength mirror on the Kubota, and decided to grab a selfie. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Selfie+B_amp_W.TIFF.html Fuji X-E1 with Fuji 18-55, ISO 320 Comments and critiques welcomed and appreciated. -- Jim Nichols Tullahoma, TN USA _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
