At the end of the day, when I’m on the road, I grab all the cards out of the cameras and put them … wherever I can find that is flat. I then start cycling through them to ingest them. I did this the other day on the coach in a lodge and when I sat down, two cards went off my computer deck into the cushion and then … into the dark recesses of the lodge coach. What a nightmare. It’s then I got out the ProGrade Pro Card Caddy! I had received it just as I was walking out the door and had forgotten I had it until I was digging through cushions (miserable task at a lodge). Then it was obvious to me how the Caddy would save me time. The magnetic bottom holds it securely on the deck of the notebook. I can load it with the cards to be ingested and then once that is done, put them back in opposite order until they are all ingested. With each body having 2 cards, stills, and video, it’s completely logical and a perfect product. Yeah, it can hold an AppleTag, with the cover it could go in your camera bag, but might be a bit of a space hog. But when it comes to getting images into the computer, it’s ingenious! It’s a whole lot better then searching through coach cushions!

The Dakota Territory Air Museum is a one-of-a-kind collection of flying aircraft. We’re very fortunate they are opening their doors and collection to our cameras for a one-of-a-kind A2A Clinic! Possible subjects range from Spitfire to P-51D, P-47 to FM-2P with the possibilities of Staggerwing, Waco, Monocoup, and so much more. One of the world’s finest collection of flying WWII aircraft will light your passions and fill your viewfinder with magic!

The weekend starts on Friday evening with intense classroom work at the Museum. Items to be covered during the A2A Photo Clinic are:

and so much more!

Saturday morning we’ll have a sunrise ramp static shoot, images that we’ll finish and review during the Clinic in preparation for your A2A photo mission. Then more classroom time prepares you for your flight. You’ll be shooting from a Harvard and Cessna 185, two of the best photo platforms. You’ll have an A2A photo mission Saturday evening and then another Sunday morning, timed for the best light weather permits. The price for the Clinic is $3800 which includes all instruction and flights (meals, lodging, and transportation not included).

This is your opportunity to test the skies, take your camera in the air, and learn from the best aviation photography team! To register or ask a question or two, give the office a call 406. 240. 3503 (9-5MT M-F) and we’ll put you in the seat for a photographic experience like none before! Moose’s A2A Photo Clinic!
