rainbow.jpgThe days are getting shorter, so the flying has to be done earlier. Fortunately, my employer gives us flexible hours, so this is not a problem. I took one of our co-op students up for his first GA flight. He snapped this picture with a cellphone camera. I could only see the top half of the rainbow from the pilot seat, and didn’t realize how spectacular the view was from his side.

fall-colours.jpgToday I flew up to Elora to get some photos of the gorge during the peak of the fall colours, and then over to my place to take a picture of our renovation, which is at the foundation stage.

I also had the opportunity to photograph some hot air balloons from the air, although those photos turned out a little bit blurry.
