Continuing the aviation theme for this weekend, I opted to stay out of the direct glare of the sun today and drove west, to the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum at the Hamilton Airport. It’s been a while since I’ve been there, and I was overdue for another visit. It’s amazing what a difference new equipment makes — I went for more depth of field this time around, highlighting details I couldn’t capture before.
I got to fly in this plane last November! What a thrill! I was telling someone yesterday while watching the air show how exciting it was to fly in the DC-3 Dakota, except I’d forgotten the name of the plane. This is why I try and make an effort to tag and label all my photographs: memory failure! I often do a search on my own photos and website entries just for this purpose. It’s BUGS me to no end when I can’t recall something, especially when it was not so long ago — less than a year, in this case.
