Pick your best one for that they prefer them one at a time up there

Thanks "Black94sol" for your images. An excellent portfolio of life on the base, much appreciated. Whether one agrees with you being there or not is irrelevant. As an Australian and being involved as well as you boys, I can only say, may God bring you back safely and keep up the photography. My only comment would be. Try and make your pictures tell a story, remember "a picture is worth a thosand words"

welcome to the forum.

I do like the AH64 and the blackhawk shots and the ones of what looks like an old Antonov AN2??

black94sol · Nov 30, 2006

wow someone knows what it is...we've been wondering...it's a old 16 cylinder engine plane...it's so nice...i need to take more pics of it...like the inside, i think they would turn out great

lostprophet · Nov 30, 2006

Michael Humle · Nov 30, 2006

If you go in to that plane, make sure it's been secured, eh?
Sorry my Paternal instincts are kicking in....

Welcome, awesome pictures and stay safe! You got the chance I wanted - to be in the middle of it and able to take pictures. All I can say is learn everything about your camera and its abilities, take as many pictures as you can (while staying safe, please) and make sure you touch base here. :thumbup:

Fantastic pictures!!!
I think my favorite is of the sea cans. looks so.. industrial or something.

perhaps you should consider starting a web gallery.
I think you can get free webspace through geocities and stuff like that.
Theres a program called Gallery.
With gallery viewers can post comments on each individual picture.

Might be an idea to consider.

thanks i might have to try that

Welcome! I like to see that even in the most hard of times and the most dangerous of situations that you are still able to observe and capture the raw beauty in that environment. Kudos to you. :thumbup:

It gives a totally different perspective, and the images themselves imply hope.

Very neat pictures.

You are progressing very well. I have the same camera.

Be sure to take pictures of yourself and all those around you, and your everyday tasks too. Snapshots really, but you can look back at them years down the road.

Thanks for serving our country, we're all thinking of you back home.
