Fellow photographers:
I'd like to take the time out to congratulate a now good friend of mine, and a developing photographer that gets better by the day. I still remember the first day I met Danny and went spotting...in crappy TUL, mind you. But, Danny let me use his camera (300D) for the first time, and I bought it that night for myself. Alas, Danny now has ME in this money hungry, yet fun hobby!
Danny now has a total of 240k+ views and counting, and has been someone I look up to for assistance and guidance in my photography.
To Danny:
Thanks for the tremendous amount of help, hell, and fun you have been through with me in the aviation photography world, and from myself (and I'm pretty sure the rest of us here), thanks for the wonderful images you contribute to this site! Here's to another 700!

Quoting Psych (Reply 3): It's a great shame that this photo is not part of his A.net portfolio, as he and I have just been discussing.
That shot is a bummer. I've liked it sense you first showed it to me.
Congrats on the 700 and good luck on your road to the big 1k!
Hey I was looking through your stats......over 90 shots of CRJ's.

I am always glad to help, hell, it means looking at shots of aircraft! I look forward to many more crazy Cali trips! lol

Likewise Paul, I am always up for civilized discussion.

Thank you, that's one of the reasons I like this site...good shots by good people and photogs helping photogs. It's a shame the bad sometimes outweighs the good here.

"You know you're a Tulsa spotter when..."
God, ain't that the sad truth?! You gotta work with what ya got I guess, although I find myself going out there to TUL less and less.
Thanks to everyone for the props! I enjoy contributing here as well as taking in all the nice shots put up by the scores of others on this site.
