Red and White
Posted: Thu Dec 22, 2022 4:04 pm
Hi everyone. I have spent the last couple of years re-editing many of my USA digital images. As it's nearly Christmas, I thought I would share just a few of my red (orange) and white collection from the last 15 years.
My very first digital picture taken stateside was of this T-2C Buckeye outside Grissom Air Museum back in 2008. A delayed flight into Chicago meant a late arrival at the museum, it was closed when we got there but I managed to get this image curtesy of a quiet road and positioned headlights off the hire car.
