Great shots!
The people under the wing remind me of people camping under the wings of a C-5 for the shade at the JSOH this year. There was people packed on the shadow, it looked really funny. I'll go see if I have a pic. Smiley

Just what I was going to say... for these shots, at least, the weird light and unsettled sky adds a lot of drama. #3 is... wait for it... awesome!!  Grin
