Damn your pictures are great. Wonder if you could make a cirrus look pretty.

What are you using for the camera ship?

Thanks! LOL, wouldn't have to do much.

What are you using for the camera ship?

Cessna 210 so far. Going to use a Maule with me in the baggage area for most shoots going forward.

Lovely pictures! Pretty rare talent to make a C172 look that pretty, and truly in its element. Yours are better than any promo shots I have ever seen from Cessna.

A 210? Are you shooting through Plexiglas or is a window open?

sixPapaCharlie - would you want them to photoshop the chute out or leave it in?

Thank you, very nice compliment!

Open window. In the Maule I will have no doors at all! I'll be wearing a safety harness, which will give me a lot more room to shoot.

sixPapaCharlie - would you want them to photoshop the chute out or leave it in?

No Photoshop, he has to pull the chute for real!!

You're in the Austin area?

We are going down to Jay's place at some point in the next few weeks.
I may see if we can solicit your services at some point during that trip.

Yes, based out of T74. Just let me know!

I would like see a 45 degree high banking turn shot in some of you shot. Otherwise nice pictures.

 

[BigBadLou]

Seems like Jack is in.
Brah-yen, come on down to Nuevo Kalyfornya and we'll go for a great burger and take some pictures in the meantime!

My favorite is the one over the plowed field. The way the texture plays with the light is just cool.

Thanks, I like that one too!

My favorite one is over the foggy creek. Brings back memories of BAT21.

This is the flight that almost wasn't. A lot of nearby airports were IFR, but we had some ground fog in the creeks, but otherwise clear. We got in the flight, maybe 20 minutes, and got back just as the low cloud cover was getting to the airport. It ended up being a nice setup!

I thought you were going to ask him if he wanted the mechanics tearing the engine down, photoshopped out. ;-)

Great pics once again. Really enjoy them. I too would like some pics of the plane in a bank. Maybe even inverted?

We'll work on getting some in a bank, but there's only a couple of people I'm going to let fly that close to me inverted!! It's been going pretty good, but I have to evaluate the pilot's skills at following my directions pretty quickly. If they catch on and fly well, I'll pull them in closer. If they don't, I keep them at a distance.

 

[mscard88]

Completely understand!

 

[frfly172]

Nice pictures as usual,keep them coming.

 

[tawood]

Nice! I like how the foreground is crisp while there's haze in the background. It's like a natural bokeh.

 

[mscard88]

5th pic looks good in a slight bank Jack!

 

[Unit74]

" That Maule doesn't have a chute......Jack fell out of the back again trying to frame up a shot".

 

[JustinD]

Awesome pictures! Those look great!

 

[capg2000]

Wow, is all I can say.....
GA, in general is waiting for you, to do a nice tour... Or set up at Sun n Fun & KOSH! you will make the trip "pay off" very well
Great to see people using their great skills with a camera, showing the beauty we all get to see in a GA airplane or flying machine. Now you need to promote yourself!!!

Haha - I was just thinking that if he could make a dowdy airplane like a 172 look this nice, I'd love to have Jack take some pics of my Cirrus. But then again, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I know some people don't like the way Cirri look at all. And then there's the fact that I designed my paint scheme so I'm kind of partial to it...

Depends if your flying it Bryan

wise ass

 

[Arbiter419]

Beautiful shots...keep up the good work!

 

[Lowflynjack]

Wow, thanks for all of the nice compliments. I logged off for a day or two and came back to a lot of nice words.

I'm in Dallas getting shots of my friend's Eagle his Dad built and they're coming out awesome. I'll share them in a couple of days.

I've got an RV left to do, then a Hatz and I'll have a pretty good portfolio! http://www.airpixtx.com/

Pretty pics as always. Nice looking 172, too.

Thanks. It is a nice plane. It's got 180hp and an autopilot, so pretty cool for a 172!

Wow! Great Shots!

Wow! Great Shots!

Thank you!

No, I leave the video to others! Too much work to edit.
