Recently, we did a photo shoot over Route 66 Bridge and surrounding area. Meaning, I took my old camera and hung out the window of a Cessna 172 — without my zoom lens. Sadly, the long lens is on the fritz. My latest prayer/song is, “Oh, Lord, won’t you buy me a Canon Camera,” with something akin to a Janis Joplin voice. Just click for a larger view of Erik & Stephen in their 1-26 gliders.




7. How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings. 8. They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights. 9. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light. Psalm 36
Absolutely wonderful photos!
Thank you, Cathy. I appreciate your encouragement!
God Bless You!
Makes me think of lyrics of the song:
On the wings of a snow-white dove
He sends His pure sweet love
A sign from above
On the wings of a dove
Hello, Ted. Great song. I had a dream recently where I was a fluttering dove — what on earth does that mean!!!
God Bless You!
Fantastic photos!
Thank you so much, Bill. I appreciate your support!
God Bless You!
Lady D . ..I loved these! Your photos are so special to me! And you are brave . . hanging out the window to take them! That makes them even more special! God bless you as you take refuge under His wing!
Hello, Debbie. I don’t always like the bouncy ride to altitude, but I do like the fresh air and camera in my eye when I pop open the window.
Thank you & God Bless You!
That is fascinating! “Hangin’ out my Cessna… snappin’ wi’ ma’ Cannon!!! aaiiieeeee!!!”
Sorry, couldn’t help imagining you soon taking these photos with your new Cannon, singing like Joplin. The photos are awesome! Is this THE route 66? Wow. God bless, good friend.
Hello, Mike. It is indeed THE famous Route 66 bridge. The same old bridge I cross over to go to church every week via vehicle bound.
Thank you & God Bless you, Dear Friend!
Such lovely glider shots, you dont have to apologise for them Lady Dei, they are great. Is that the old famous Route 66, it was featured in movie Cars, I loved that movie. Do people still use it ?
Thanks
Ron
Hello, Ron. Believe it or not — I was out doing aerials today and singing, “Oh, Lord, won’t you buy me a Canon Camera.” Actually, it doesn’t even have to be a Canon.
Thank you for the encouragement! And, Yes, we are located over a small portion of the original route 66. Pretty Cool!
God Bless You!
I love the photos, but I’m not so good at the flying thing–not scared, just scared of puking! God bless y’all today.
Hello, Caddo. Congratulations! Your comment was not in the spam net!
And I don’t care for bumpy rides — they make me a bit queasy. Well, until I stick my head out the window!
Thank you & God Bless You!
Fantastic shots! Your very brave!
Hello, Karen. It’s not too scary!
Thank You & God Bless You!

Cool! We live right on the edge of Rte. 66. And I will pray for your Canon camera if you will pray for mine–I also need the basic lenses:)!
Awesome, Nana. Praying we both receive new cameras so we continue to use them for God’s Glory!
God Bless you & yours!
Amen!
Excellent pictures Dei!!! Thanks
