Fascinating.... shame about the HDR photography.... what happened to subtlety?

I had to go look up "HDR" to figure out what all the bitching was about. I don't care. The pictures look cool. Why get bent out of shape over how the shots were prepped? Look at them for what they are.

There's a large aircraft boneyard in Tuscon with a museum. That was a cool visit!

Do graphics people have an unusually high concentration on Digg, or are there really that many people out there who've heard of "HDR" and care?

Indeed it was. I'd always fly my stunt plane from the abandoned airport to Area 69, then chute out of it and try to run past the guards fast enough to steal the Rhino tank or the Hydra. Haha. Once you were in them, you were probably good to escape.
