Just a couple of shots I took today while at Comox ........verifying things for my upcoming flight out on Wed morn.......

There are lots of these flying around here.....nice feeder-liner for the coast.

And after leaving the airport area, I stopped by Goose Spit and caught this build-up over the mainland Coastal Range.

I am glad they are going. They delaminate, crack, go milky and are a real pain in the rear to change.

Back when I lived in Toronto, I used to spend way too much time around YYZ and the shots became boring for me........I see buses and taxis when I view airliners. Every now and again, I do go out to see if I can catch something that attracts me in some little way........ Cool

Unfortunately the light level wasn't quite what I would have liked, to allow me to use a polarizer on that shot, so I had to resort to a little post capture processing on the image.

Cool

.......Levels - Brightness/Contrast - Saturation - Resizing - Sharpening....... Cool

.........all in very minor amounts (other than the re-size for the forum specs),... it can be effective if you keep manips to a minimum........ Wink
