First in Flight

I know, that's the motto of the State of North Carolina (on their plates).  Here, I refer to the first posting of an in-flight photograph.

The Treasure Coast at Sundown

The Treasure Coast at Sundown

I took this photo from the back of my airplane, an RV-6, using a tripod and a Nikon D40 camera. The lens is a Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6. Taken at 1/60 sec., f/5.6, ISO-200, lens set at 18mm. Flash fill was used to illuminate the instrument panel.  The camera was fired using a remote. Location is approximately 1,000 feet over the area of Sebastian, Florida.
