I went on another aerial photography trip today. We started in Allentown and flew over the steel mill, the former Taylor Wharton plant and former Dixie Cup factory in Wilson, the former Williams paint plant in Easton, the slate quarries, and Keystone Cement in Bath before returning via downtown Allentown. Here is a link to the images:

Well Mike after looking at all 230 pictures I have (3) comments

1st. . . When are you going to start working on your pilots liscence?

2nd...The demolition at Beth Steel has far exceeded what I thought was going to originally happen. The amount of history & equipment that should have been saved is gone forever. I hope they leave you guys a building when it is completed. It is getting to the point that the remaining buildings left will look out of place when the new construction starts then time will tell what will happen with what is left. I hope it works out.

3rd...The slate belt pics where AWESOME ! ! ! Nice clear day too & no leaves.

The first three images show a flooded Zinc mine. The rest are mostly Bethlehem Steel shots.

I wish I could afford to start on MY pilot's license.
:(

Anyway, thanks for sharing Mike.
Great shots!
