Douglas,
beautiful images of Iceland. I only saw the airport on my way to/from Norway in early May. #2 is incredible, but all are beautiful.

Thank you Dan and Gero! Iceland is really unique geologically, waterfalls, volcanos, imposing mountains... really a landscape photographer's paradise. And it's only 5.5 hours away from Maryland! Beats going to California for sure. Interesting enough, two B-2 bombers landed in Iceland last year for some kind of exercise. I bet it must something for people in a small country to see something like that.
Anyway, here are some shots from the NATO Tiger Meet in Germany on June 5. I didn't know anything about it until the day before when someone from the air to air shoot told me about it, and it was only 25 minutes drive from where I was staying in Germany. I shot from outside the fence along with a couple hundred folks, only for taking off and landing. The takeoff was in the "wrong" direction, we only got the tails in distance and the exhaust gas. The landing in the morning round was very nice but the landing in the afternoon round was tough with the lighting. I was very happy to be able to see a variety of European fighter jets (Tornado, Typhoon, Gripen, Rafale) that I had never seen before, not even on the ground. So this was a bonus for me, it wasn't part of the planned trip.
