In honor of all the "warbird" B-25 pilots and aircrafts:
Dan, I am heading to DC this Friday to see the flyover for the 75th anniversary of V-E Day that was postponed from May due to COVID-19. There will be over 70 warbirds in formation, including two B 29s. The weather has been so nice recently but it’s not looking good for Friday.

Will await your fine photos my friend!

Thanks, Dan and Jim. With my very limited and shaky skills for slow shutter speed for prop. motion, I will be pleasantly surprised if I could get 1 sharp shot out of 10. But for me the experience of being there trumps getting a good picture. I was there 5 years ago for the flyover for the 70th anniversary of the V-E Day too. I am always amazed that these 70 years+ old planes can still fly. Seeing one B-29 in the air is quite a sight, let alone two!
Oh, BTW, for Mark and or anyone thinking about the Canon 70-200/2.8 Series III, hard to believe, but faster, sharper, better contrast and flare control This is based upon very minimal evaluation, just picked it up this afternoon. Additionally, time is of the essence cuz they are going up $200 next month, as in a week or so.
My straggling 16TB hard drive just arrived FedEx and it's already spinning with the other 7 in my newest Thunderbay 8 Array. Allen is now experiencing rolling blackouts..............
The link isn't working as planned......... Thanks for the feedback. It worked on my computer but I think that is because Smugmug remembers/associates the PW to my computer some how so I get false positive tests.
Anyone have an ideal how to contact the Sales staff at FredMiranda? I couldn't find a link on the website and did reply to an older email with no positive results.

I use smugmug myself. If you want to post a link to a picture you need to go to the picture in your library, click on it so that you get the options along the side and then click on the share icon. You'll then get a link which you copy with the big green button.
All my posts are from my Smugmug galleries, using Rob's method. I also put a simple frame around them by bracketing the URL with [ frame] and [ /frame]. (Take out the spaces I inserted after the first bracket. Had to do that, or this post gets wonky as it tries to frame my words.)
However, I don't think you can link to a photo in a gallery that is password-protected.
I knew about this a month ago but was sworn to secrecy, Canon has a new cinema camera, the C70. Don't think it fits for me, but it looks like a great tool for someone.

You HAVE A GREAT DAY Douglas!!!!!!
The "ready" airfield is at the Manassas airport. What a sight of all these "warbirds" lined up and ready for takeoff!!!!
It is a bit foggy here but I would think the flyover will be great!!
I am sure you are in that area(DC flyover path to WWII Memorial) just drooling!
Will await your fine captures!!
