Blue Angels: Event Photographer

This last weekend, I attended an air show in the Dallas/ Ft Worth area.  It was my first air show, and wow- what an experience!  I am fairly impressed with the ability of man to fly at all, so this show completely blew me away!  Planes of all shapes and sizes were swooping and loop-de-looping all over the place!

By far, the most impressive group of the day was the Blue Angels.  (The final performance beginning at around 3pm.)  These planes flew so close to one another -at such an amazing speed- that the thought makes me want to pee my pants a little bit.  Heh... just a little.

Check out some of the amazing shots I was able to get.  The largest zoom I used was a 200, so this gives you an idea of how close these planes were actually flying to us!
