Downtown Tampa
I was flying with a new pilot who had just puchased this plane from a friend of mine. We had flown over to St. Petersburg, Fla. for him to practice landings at a towered airport. While returning to our home airport, I grabbed this shot fom 2600 feet through the plane's plexiglass window. Olympus C-3020
Thx Doc. Through the plexiglass, with the vibratiins, and with only 3 megapixels... We'll see what I can do with the 20D when I buy my own plane...
Jim, that's Peter 'O Knight airport. In it's early history it was also a seaplane base and is the detination of the first scheduled airline flight in the world. St. Pete to Tampa, flown by Tony Janus, 1914-1924. http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/17933/109196
