Rooivalk "African Sky"
This past festive season gave me some time to be a little creative so i used two images that i photographed and created this dramatic "painting". The Rooivalk helicopter(16Sqn) fired these rockets during a training operation near Bloemfontein and the sunset i photographed from a moving car near Johannesburg, South Africa.
Cockpit sunshade!
Captains can have very creative ideas some times!
This particular one, "professionally" managed to use his personalized checklist (checking the copilot mostly) and some beautiful "Head Up Display" also, to rest his eyes on it, during the long and boring auto pilot flight hours.
All that, combined in a shade to keep the sun rays out of the cockpit...!!!

F14 Escorting a C-21 In Iraq II
A controller mix-up resulted in his plane (C-21) being misidentified over Iraq with some VIP's on board. F-14's were sent up to do a visual on them. One of the brass in the back snapped these great air to air shots of the escort fighters.

Explanation: What type of cloud is that? It is not a naturally occurring one. Looking perhaps a bit like a gigantic owl monster, the cloud pictured above resulted from a series of flares released by an air force jet over the Atlantic Ocean in May. The jet that released the flares, a C-17 Globemaster III, is seen on the right. The flares release smoke and the resulting pattern is sometimes known as a smoke angel. The circular eyes of the above smoke angel are caused by air spiraling off the plane's wings and are known as wingtip vortices.

Wallpaper F-16
A nice closeup photo of a viper driver, probably taken from a tanker boom controller's point of view.
It's nice to be used as a wallpaper on your desktop, isn't it?

Hercules C130B "Pretty Lady"
Hercules C130B "Flossie" is based at AFB Waterkloof, 28 Squadron, Pretoria, South Africa. Photography took place over a dam near Brits in South Africa in the afternoon. These aircraft are more than 40years old and are in imaculant condition. The crews love their planes dearly and walking into the squadron with enlarged prints of this lady lit up their faces. I used 2lenses (18-70mm and 70-300mm), adjustable polarising filters to enhance contrast and colours, 250sec, 0.3overexposure compensation and auto aperture. I always shoot aircraft on the vivid-setting in the progammable mode.

Captain Ryan Cokayne of Team 64, flying no.3 for the Silver Falcons Aerobatic Team in South Africa. This is an Air Force team that we are very proud of. We are flying near Cape Point (Cape Agulhas) on a perfect day. The polarizing effect that I got in his canopy was pretty cool.

For the past 30 years, the F-14 Tomcat has assured U.S. air superiority, playing a key role in ensuring victory and preserving peace around the world. The F-14 Tomcat will be removed from service and officially stricken from the inventory in September 2006. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate 2nd Class Miguel A. Contreras. I WILL MISS THE TOMCAT!!! ;(
