X-Craft

I am posting from Whidbey Island, Wash., where I am covering my first major assignment for the Office of Naval Research, the christening of the X-Craft. Had a shot at the cover of Popular Mechanics today and sent some low-rez photos, but since the boat is still not in the water, they said they would opt for an artists rendition. So close. Later in the day I photographed the X-Craft from a 60' man-lift in order to get a semi aerial view, which I thought came out fine, so I forwarded it to Popular Mechanics just in case they change there mind.
Today is the christening ceremony and that probably means lots of grip and grins for me, but it is still shooting and maybe I'll get a chance to get something nice on the side.
