Very interesting, Michael. You find such unique things to take pictures of. Love the geometrics here and the colors. I suspect you entered this in EoD. #1191934Michael Kelly October 13, 2009

Wow thanks for the kind reception to this rather simple shot. I think the greased tubes added to the interesting reflections of brilliantly painted planes in the BG. This and the symmetry of the pod are what makes the shot.Thanks again to all of you for your kind remarks. #8037749
