The nearby Arkansas Air and Military Museum has WWII-era planes this weekend, and two of them are giving rides. They fly very close to my home, so thanks to my "big lens," I got a few shots. #planes #WWIIplanes #photography

Probably one of my favorite #photographs from my recent trip to the #kzoo #airzoo space and science museum. Nose cannons of a B-25j bomber. One of the instances where the lighting and space worked out well in a museum.
