I'll do that. I'll say I won't be happy until he gets grass in his wingtip.

Hey, I just noticed a couple things we could fix for next year. Thanks Victor!

What can one say about VA.........just a pure artist, sheer genius. I've put the Precious Metal shot from last week (the one with the sunset looking like a lightning bolt in the prop blades as the aircraft taxis towards the camera) on my desktop at work and have had several people stop by and ask about it. I always tell them it's not photo shopped...just Victor Archer, the artist, the genius, the man. Pure Magic!

Hmm...
1) Canopy separation
2) Nice yellow paint job
3) New entry name starting with G
4) What's that hanging in the wind under the left wing?
5) Insert 490+ lap here

1) Saw that, plus the foot step opening up in flight.
2) Sorry, we're keeping the red and silver. The Ghost will be black and silver.
3) You're thinking of the other mustang.
4) Radio antenna. Remember, this is a "stocker."
5) If only!

Who??? Me??? Gezzzz Man, I think I might need to buy you a beer...

The PM sunset lightning bolt shot was one of those things I look for, I'm almost always at the ramp near sunset! It was one of those "It's only there for a split second" I had to run for it and the sun set right after I got the shot, so yes it really was very orange.

Photoshop can't make the picture but it does take care of those horrible earthling dustbunnies!

Re: Cloud Dancer - Images in the clouds

Ahhh Dust

I have some genuine Reno dust fresh off the sensor. Should I put it on Ebay?

Beautiful work as ever Victor.

Victor -

I love the last shot the most - a perspective I've never seen before, you know, your artistry thing!

I thought it looked different than the rest. I'm sure you have more from this perspective.

He can't. None of the other airplanes go low enough to allow him to!
