First Airliners.net photo!

[Realbigtaco]

Ok, so i kept telling myself after every one of my rejections that i was going to give up, and that A.net was to picky....which they still may be, however i was determined to get a photo in, and it finally happened.  Might not be much to some, but a small personal victory for myself!!

Congrats!

Great picture too. It looks like you caught it right at V-1. 

Looks kinda deserty in the background. Was that at China Lake or Fallon?

Congrats. I used to have one up there, but asked them to remove it a few years ago when they were wrangling with the rights on the photos and the initial pass of it was that they basically said they had all copyright. I told them to pound sand (okay it was a little harsher than that) and remove my photo immediately. There were quite a few photographers that did that. Magically, that policy changed and thankfully you retain rights to your work.

They are some picky screeners, so I know how tough it is to get through, so congrats!

I do agree with you Chris.  Could'nt have said it better. "Ya' Damon when will we be able to go to the next photocall?" Last year at El Centro rocked.  "NICE SHOT TACOHEAD."

I'll go with you guys as long as you don't laugh at my camera. I suffer from serious telephoto envy
