Well,not quite,but this is an image my son and i took

it was quite a challange,but fun,and one of those "farther son projects"

I had my Vixen ED 81 on vixen "porta" al taz mount,with 13mm T6 naglar

attached to this a canon 570 power shot digital camera,and now-the

reson why two people need,i looked through 7 by 50 right angle finder

and guided scope manually,my son pressed the button when i yelled

NOW, lots of fun,arms and heads intertanged sometimes.But the pic

was sharpe,for the airplane afficionados,its a airbus 330 etihad airlines

when i crop the pic we can see eagles claw clasping,on the tails

insigna

cheers Chris

Awesome Chris.:thumbsup:
You's must have had a ball taking it.
I've taken liberties, yet again, and applied a clarify filter, curves and USM to the image. Hope you don't mind, too much.;)
