This is the one tag and challenge that I always make a point of joining, and also look through the posts of others that join the challenge and seeing markets from all around the world.

For this weeks post, I am sharing a few photos I took at out little Airport here in New Bedford MA which is municipality owned and open for public use.

It has a couple of airlines which fly to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket and I see often private planes flying in and out of it

Starting with a shot of the airport building and control tower

Outside the entrance to the airport, clearly this area is known for Boston Red Sox and Bruins supporters

I did plan to take some photos inside the airport, but was told I couldn't take photos with my camera in side the airport, and then they also didn't want me to put my camera in my bag and take photos with my cell phone because I was carrying a camera.

I just agreed and didn't argue the point but I find it amusing or perhaps annoying and illogical that they have no problem with people taking photos with a cell phone with how good cell phone cameras are these days, but not with a camera.

I had that issue a few times in NYC, and was told its because its a security risk, now correct me if I am wrong, but if a person of perhaps questionable motivation wants to take photos of a location and not be noticed are they going to use a big camera, or take sneaky photos with their phone which on one seems to find a problem?

Or to put is shortly I couldn't take any photos in the airport so here are some more outside the airport,
A small playground and a few aircraft
