The Cradle

I have been to this place a billion times. Well, OK, just a million. But only during the day. This is the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City. I spent a lot of time in the building before the museum first opened, photographing a number of the airplanes and exhibits. You can see, in the upper right part of the building, a biplane suspended while in a turn. Tonight there was an FAA Safety Seminar for pilots that was held there, and I decided to attend. I was stunned to drive up to the building and see it like this, at night, all lit up. Oh, and what made it particularly beautiful was that all the pavement was wet from rainstorms, making this image so much more spectacular.
