Home from Oshkosh

11 years, 9 months ago 2

 

Finally off the road after two months of almost non-stop travel.  Will be good to be closer to home in August! The best shot for Nikon from the air show was the one I led with for this post, Susan Scharenberg’s shot of one of the shooting towers at Oshkosh!  The first few days at Oshkosh were miserable with temps in the high 90’s and 100% humidity, later int he week some thunderstorms cleared the air and dropped the temps to the mid to high 80’s, bearable!  It was great to hang out with Tyson Reninger, a great aviation shooter, and Francis Yeh our wonderful repair tech!   We were also joined by Bill Kotar, Scott Diussa, and David Lee for part of the week, it was great to see all the gang again!

 

I did not shoot nearly as much as usual.this being our first year at Oshkosh and there was a lo9t to do to get organized for future events with them.  I did test the new 18-300 DX super Zooma and will post about that tomorrow, but I shot very little on this trip, I did get a few shots leaving Sunday and on the way home, hope you enjoy them!!

    Hi Bill, It was interesting seeing all the Nikon banners where there used to be Canon. I didn’t know Nikon took over the sponsorship until I was talking with one of the EAA Photo volunteers. Wish I could have met you but didn’t know where they had you guys hidding.

    What a surprise to see that shot heading today’s post! Hope you’re enjoying the break from travel. Looking forward to the 18-300 DX review.
