Driving 70mph

IMG_7917


My husband was flying down the highway when I had to grab my camera. The crop duster flew directly above us at one point, lol.

It looks like a roller coaster of a ride, but fun!

90 degree turns, almost touching trees.

    I LOVE when I see them flying across the road! I've pulled over for them, too, but with my PNS camera, the pictures don't come close to your...very cool!

    isn't it amazing to get such good shots while driving at high speeds! he got really close to you (unless you have a strong zoom!)

    Well done, considering you were in a moving car!

    That does look like fun!
    :)
    Not sure I could do it though :D
    Hubby has a license for those small things.
    I never tried ;)

    Those guys know how to FLY!! I can't imagine what skill it takes to deal with the constantly shifting Center of Gravity, the change in weight and the need for constant low and slow passes over the ground.

    Amazing shots ... it was almost like being in the plane with him. And isn't that little blue plane just the cutest thing?

    I'd love to have a chance to get some shots from his end of the conversation! As much as I love shooting air shows and such, I just know I'd go nuts shooting aerial stuff.

    These are great Lisa!

    Oh, fun! Good thing YOU were the one taking the pictures, though, and not your driver hubby!

    Those pictures are great! You did well! We tried to capture a crop duster once, and never did succeed. We actually drove around the country roads trying to guess which field he would cover next...only to have him completely vanish. :)

    The crop dusters in your area are daredevils.
