CP-107 Argus


Here are a few pictures of a CP-107 Argus on display in CFB Comox... I have vague recollections of being in the observation nose of one during a military family day many, many years ago.




This last photo is a pano of about 8 shots that is stitched together.

An unusual sight

While walking along the beach in Comox, I noticed a CH-149 Cormorant flying about. I took a few photos from a distance. They didn't turn out well but you can see the helicopter hovering near what appears to be a coat guard vessel. I were to make a guess, 442 Squadron was doing a hoisting exercise.

Singapore - Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall











Here are a few pictures of Victoria Theatre a in Singapore. I took these over two days with my trusty Canon G10. If I ever go back to Sing I need to bring the full mother load of SLR gear!

The Statue is of Stamford Raffles.

A few more Eagle Shots

The weather in Comox was terrible so I didn't get many quality opportunities to get shots of eagles. Here is a shot sequence I took on an overcast day. Had to Shoot ISO 400 and f/4.0 to get anything... the Lens was f/2.8 70-200mm with 1.4 extender.

This particular perch is near Portuguese Joe's... a fish monger that every once and a while puts fish guts on the beach. The Eagles pay a visit every once and a while to see if there are getting ready to dispose of the fish.
