Well Facebook want's me to log in to view this, and since I'd rather cut 
my wrists or better yet Zuckerberg's before I'd get a Facebook account, 
I'll just have to use my imagination.

Bong has designed, and is building, a scale model for the Phantom F-4B
fighter jet in which I flew in Viet Nam, based on photos and information I
provided.  Here is his post on FaceBook containing an image and other
details about his handiwork:

A longer lens would have helped. I've recently started using a close focusing 
300 for shots like yours, of course you need a longer working distance which 
might not have been possible.

Of course, if you're going farther with this image you could help it in 
processing.

The shot  requires a macro as shown.  I ?The snowdrop is the size of a 
fingernail. My lens is only a couple oof inches away. The way to nail it would 
be by focus stacking at f4 or so.But I don’t have time or energy for that.
