The Hasselblad is going with me on a trip to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of Admiral Byrd's aerial expedition to the North Pole. I'll be shooting a mix of the X2DII and the Canon R5 MkII. We left on the first leg yesterday morning. Next leg is to Bodo Norway, from there to the North Pole on Saturday morning and then straight back to Perot Field in Fort Worth Texas. Our plan is to set two world speed records in the process.

This is such a great idea! Hope it’s a thoroughly smooth journey. Good luck with the speed records and bon voyage!
Dear Andrew, Thank you! We have a relative of the Admiral's on board with us as well as the director of The Smithsonian Air and Space Museum. This is probably as close as my Hasselblad will get to it's birthplace in Goteborg.
We’re buddies =) Neighbors across the street use their house twice a year, so the foxes have taken up residence there every spring to raise their kits. This is the second year they have been here. He answers to me calling out “little boy” now, and he and our cat used to play together before the cat passed away. It’s very cool to have them be a part of the neighborhood.
He and I will just sit together in the mornings or evenings enjoying each other’s company.

Very cool! I seem to see a slight intense squint, suspicious of the camera? That's a wonderful relationship - I hope it continues for a long time. Thank you Scott, for the explanation.
Jim.

Lovely images, beautiful studio. And OMFG an RCA BC-6B!
