If any of you have flown Frontier Airlines, you'll know that they have very large animals painted on the tails and wingtips of their airplanes. As our plane was spooling up its engines in preparation for takeoff, I noticed that the background foliage on the wingtip made it seem as if the cougar mascot was in the woods watching us. I literally had only seconds to snap a quick shot, so I reached down, grabbed my camera and shot over Cameron's head as he sat in his car seat next to me. It's not the greatest shot, but it does make for an interesting illusion.
