It may be grainy and out of focus..

..but the timing is awesome!

Can you imagine my shock to look up and see the Peter Max 777 en route to Beijing from Newark? I nearly passed out! Plus the moon! Woah!

Imagine if I had a sleek SLR with a nice 400mm lens. Ah, someday. :)

I have seen that plane in Newark many times and everytime I see it, I like it more. One time, I was waiting to board and as I was looking out the window, that beauiful bird taxied right in front of the window.  :DIt was awesome!
