Aerial pictures.  Enough said.

Downtown Winnipeg, shot on July 13 2014

These were taken on July 27 in the morning of the flight to Altona to watch the motocross races with my father!  Beautiful day; unfortunately we lost our radio communications on our way back into the Winnipeg airspace, so we had to deviate around their airspace until we were able to get some communications back online.

 I spent a bit of time this summer achieving my float rating through Interlake Aviation in Norris Lake.  These photos were taken on a cross-country trip from Norris to Pine Dock, over to Bissett, and back to Norris Lake passing over Grand Beach.  If you're interested in video footage of the floatplane, watch my video posted on facebook, https://www.facebook.com/chriswelter2011

Some beach tours.  So peaceful to fly around Lake Winnipeg.  The Grand Beach and Victoria Beach Pier shots were shot by my friend Niki with a high end DSLR camera.

Winnipeg's Assiniboine park on some beautiful afternoons.  Below are a few shots of the park on Canada Day during the firework celebrations; it was hard to get a clear shot with the low lighting, fast moving subjects, not to mention shooting photos from a high speed aircraft.

Until next time...
