<p>I found long lost envelopes of B&W negatives from my time in the Navy in the 70s. This is our food and supplies coming over by helo from the supply ship.</p><div></div>

<p>Every time we went to flight quarters, the firefighting team suited up one guy to be on the point for laying down foam in case of a disaster. Long hours in a hot suit.</p><div></div>

<p>My last deployment was up at the north end of the Gulf of Tonkin sweeping mines out of the Red River leading to Hanoi as part of Kissinger's peace negotiations. Every day, a North Vietnamese surveillance aircraft flew over. We were initially barred from photographing the Vietnamese ships and aircraft, but when that ban was lifted, I readied my 500mm f8 and traded photo shots with the photographer in the open door. This single engine biplane is a Russian AN-2 Colt. One of these has been acquired by the March Field Air Museum in Riverside - I remembered it on sight.</p><div></div>

<p>December 2007, on a fresh, fresh morning with nobody out on the streets and nothing but the sound of frozen leaves and earth, making noises beneath my feet. Photo re-processed today for the occassion :-)</p><div></div>

<p>Hi there folks, very cool shots this week as well, thanks for sharing them! Mine is a snap-shot of an old clock, cheers!</p><div></div>

[Gup]

<p>Thanks, Paul. <br>

That was the last 'Wing you could buy without the tour kit, the first for the 'new' 1200cc motor and I'm not a big fan of windshields. </p>

<p>Here's one of my older, recently rediscovered Nikon photos. I found it among a batch of negatives I never printed. Looks like an early 2000s downtown Fort Worth Main Street Arts Festival shindig, with a crowd looking at a couple of those "living sculpture" mimes.<br>
