Awesome pictures, Nick. The vivid colors are enriching. I can just imagine living in that home. WOW.
thank you, Sir
Thank you, Anthony.
But ……. not sure you’d like living in that house. If you look at the attached you will see that there is an underfloor storage area where they keep fish boxes / crates. That door is propped open for a reason – the smell is a little “ripe”.
OMG, Nick......any idea how long ago the structure was built? And is it currently lived in, or just for fish storage? Wonderful capture. Old structures like old cars I find captivating. thanks again
I am relatively new on FM website. so say I ask what is the purpose of this thread? Many amazing shots here from different photographers, been looking at them page after page, all super. But why have one thread for so many photos by different people? Are there criteria for posting here?
Many thanks
I'm going to field your question as the founder of this wonderful thread. To accurately define the purpose of this thread would be fairly difficult, for some it's about aviation photography, for some it's a life line of sorts, for some it's about picking up techniques. I guess I would have to say for me it started out as photography but rapidly grew into valued friendships around the globe that will last the rest of our lives. The only way one can really understand what Mustang Air to Air is truly about, I guess you'd have to go back to page one of the first edition. What you are looking at is the second version, because we kind of broke the server with the first. We don't talk about it much, and it's due in large part to Fred giving us a wide latitude of grace, but we don't limit our subject matter to a narrow heading. We police ourselves, and except for a couple of exceptions the relationships formed here supersede the inconsequential minutia that plagues on line forums, we genuinely care about each other and nothing is more important than that.
You would be hard pressed to find a finer group of people, from all walks of life and all economic strata. Additionally the talent resident here is, in my opinion, pretty much top shelf. That doesn't mean one has to be Paul Bowen to be in our group, everyone's welcome, there isn't much oxygen here for big egos or sniping, we're kind of a family and occasionally a feather or two gets ruffled but, and I hope I speak for most everyone, none of that is more important than the relationships we've formed over the life of this discussion.

Hi Anthony,
I douht that the house is occupied. It has what looks like a slate roof – so that would make it 18xx – say 1850 ish. Feel free to start your resurch project here.

We are a big family, this is our living room, one is sleeping, another is playing PS4, someone is praying, others are chitchatting. We are a mix of people/locations/religions/psychologies/moods all bound to our human origin (care, love, kindness)
The criteria to post here is: feel yourself home, post something that flies , ask questions (we have super talented people here)
