About This Blog:

The primary purpose of this blog is to showcase the best of my aviation photography. As such, you will find links to my main aviation gallery on Facebook containing photos from aircraft spotting, some kind of aviation event such as air shows and fly-in events, as well as aviation museums. I also critique my flights on commercial airlines and the services they provide. Occassionally, you'll find personally written, independent articles based on news and current events involving aviation. And of course, I'll put up links to official and unofficial aviation-related websites when I find them. And when time permits, I'll talk and discuss about anything involving aviation. But most importantly, this is my way to document my journey into the aviation industry!

Gallery Update: Starting 2023 in the Presence of Warbirds...

Again, Happy New Year to you all!

After ringing in the New Year at the Hangar-B Production's New Year's Eve Dance at Aurora State Airport, I had the opportunity to photograph the warbirds that graced us with their presence during the event after some hangar lights were turned on, which provided more favorable conditions to get decent photos of the planes I was admiring all night; during the event itself, the lights were dimmed to provide a dance-appropriate atmosphere for the guests and attendees, so that made photography challenging. Needless to say, I was grateful for the opportunity as I started 2023 where I finished off 2022.
