And boy are my arms tired. Bada-boom.
Good to be home. On the 60 mile drive home from the airport this evening we saw maybe a couple dozen cars, in the northeast if you go 6 miles you see a couple thousand cars.
Just realized that last Sunday I forgot to change the the top count, I didn’t leave the top down all week while the car was at the airport, it actually went up before last Sunday’s drive to Columbia. Tonight when we landed back in South Carolina it was just about as cold as it was when we left Jersey this morning, so although we wanted to ride home with the top down, we didn’t want to that bad. It stayed up.
Started down, went up, still up.

I do not have your experience with a camera, but while looking at P.O. for Due West (the one with sun rays), my thought was that, as interesting as the picture is as photographed, an umbrella or other appropriate but out of frame shading device would have cleared up the lens flare.

My second thought is that it would not be worth giving up the flag to take out the lens flare.

Glad to hear that you made it home OK and weren’t delayed too much by the bad weather

Michael – I have a thing for purposely shooting into the sun to create lens flare. The effect is not the same with a digital camera as it was with a film SLR (see Askew or better yet Waiting on the Bus in the U.S.S. Midway gallery) I think I have a shot without the flag and flare at home, I’ll check and if I do I’ll post it later.

Mike C – We got lucky, there were a lot of other people standing in line at the Customer Service counters in the terminals. Our flight was late enough that most of the bad weather was gone, but still the take off from Dulles in that little jet was a lot like Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride.
