Photo 365 - Day 329 (Burned Bulb)
Day 329 (May 28th, 2011)
Title: Burned Bulb
First, I want to appologize for the poor quality of this photo. I took it with my iPhone, zoomed in. We recently needed to take a trip to Colorado and as we were getting ready to take off, supposedly a little light bulb burned out. This caused quite a tizzy with the pilots and maintenance folks. Needless to say, we were delayed, but I was lucky enough to be sitting in the first row with a great view of the cockpit.
Within 10-15 minutes, a techie arrived with a sealed mylar bag and a tool belt. He went in (while the pilots were chatting up the flight attendants), took the entire top panel down and proceeded to pull our an entire unit of buttons, switches, and knobs. He tossed the old unit on the floor, ripped open the mylar bag, pulled out an entirely new Button/Switch/Knob thingy, slammed it in and everything worked. I totally imagined him working on Nascars (those guys who can change a tire in like 3 seconds), being called and asked: "Hey, Bob, can you fix us up a plane?" "Sure, no prob! Be done in 5 minuets flat!"
It was fun to watch, but better to finally take off.
Enjoy!

Photo 365 - Day 297 (Tow Away Zone)
Day 297 (April 26th, 2011)
Title: Tow Away Zone
"Hey! I was only parked here for like 15 min!"
"I'm sorry sir, this is a white zone, it's for loading and unloading of passengers only."
"I was totally doing that! Unloading them!"
"Of course you were sir. For 15 min? I don't think so. Your vehicle is going to be towed and you can claim it at impound."
"Seriously?! I mean, come on! I've got to be in Boston in like 6 hours!"
"That's not my problem sir."
"It won't even fit in your impound!"
"We'll make it fit sir. Now please stand aside. Thank you, and have a nice day."
"You *#@*!!"
At least, that's what I imagined they were saying to each other...
Still in catch-up mode.

Photo 365 - Day 26 (De Plane!)
Day 26 (July 29th, 2010)
Title: De Plane
I saw this plane flying over the treetops in our "backyard" (not really a backyard, just a forest that's behind our house) and I thought it contrasted nicely with the tree branches. More fun with forced Depth of Field (DoF)! Notice some of the "front" branches and the plane are in focus and the "background" trees are out-of-focus. No idea how I did that, but its neat!
