The Wright brothers statue in Deed's park overlooking the Dayton skyline. Did you know that the Wright brothers studied how birds soared in the wind. They observed how the air flowed over the curved surface of their wings to create lift. They used this information in the formation of their aircraft.

Love the pics Gwen, if I may call you Gwen. Really, I love all of your work. I can really see where your schooling plays into your photography. You really grasp the material and make your own pictures come alive. Continue with your passion and I will continue to follow.

[Translation: Good Job MOM!!!]
