    Nice big iron images here Bernd. Those clouds were looking rather menacing in flight too :unsure::D

    I'm happy you like them, Landon

    Very nice shots

    I have not explore in depth Ecuador

    Cheers

    Thank you, Carlos, the whole continent is so huge, (as you know better than anyone else here :)) it would take a lifetime to explore just parts of it. But for me most impressive is this huge Amazon area

  6. Now...that first sentence in your thread...where on earth have I heard that before. Oh well, must have slipped my mind :D

    Did I say that I like your shots a lot? No, I didn't? Ok, here you go, sir: I like your shots a lot :)

  7. Our departure airstrip is somewhere in the jungles of Ecuador. These remote strips are still today sometimes used by Douglas DC-3 airplanes. As we will get our DC-3 only in November, we use the equally capable Ju-52 to ferry to these areas badly needed supplies.

     

    Shell Mera is a small city located on the western edge of the Ecuadorian Amazon and in the eastern foothills of the Andes. It is located about 94 miles (151 km) southeast of Quito. Its name comes from the Royal Dutch Shell corporation. Shell Mera was established in 1937 as a Shell Oil Company base. The base consisted of little more than several basic shacks and a 5,000-foot (1,500 m) airstrip. It was operated as part of Shell's prospecting efforts in the region.

    Smashing shots! The rhino on the hillside is for real?

    Thanks a lot Lars. Sorry, I forgot to mention, the rhino on Table Mountain is indeed for real. In January 2013, the image of a rhino was projected against the face of Table Mountain to support anti-rhino poaching activities in South Africa
