As 2020 comes to a close, I started thinking about how I could end this crazy year on a high note.
The COVID-19 pandemic forced a lot of people to seriously cut back on doing things they love. Lucky for me, my passion for aviation photography wasn’t — and still hasn’t been — impacted. Plane-spotting is something I’ve been able to do safely and frequently throughout the year.
I feel so fortunate that I’ve been able to continue doing what I love, and with the holiday season in full swing, I started to wonder how I could give back to others.
A couple weeks back, I shared some of my favorite photos that I had taken this year with a friend of mine, who then asked, “When can I buy a calendar?” Right then I had my “Aha!” moment… I’d make 2021 calendars featuring my photos, put them up for sale, and donate 100 percent of the profits to a local aviation/humanitarian nonprofit called Wings of Hope.
I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to be able to share my photography with others, while giving back to those in need. Also, let’s be honest, 2020 has been pretty awful. What better way to forget all about it, than with a 2021 calendar filled with big, beautiful flying machines?
With that, The Great Planes 2021 Calendars are on sale now through Dec. 15. All orders will ship Dec. 22.
I sincerely wish you and your loved ones a safe and happy holiday season!
