Look Homeward, Angel

Blue Angels (the US Navy's precision flying team), performing at a local air show. Capturing these guys is difficult... they are really moving fast! I think they fly F-18 Hornets, but I am not militarily knowledgeable at all.

I liked the light behind the middle plane. They are flying straight up, for orientation.
Nice!

Thanks! I am just glad it was kind of in focus... my reflexes aren't very good when these guys are flying by.

Great capture. They would be traveling so fast, well done.

Great shot. Ours are known as The Red Arrows. I love to watch their displays of precision flying. Love the vapour trails.

Great shot! Canada's version of the snowbirds flew over our house two days ago. I wasn't fastest enough with the camera though.

@joemuli @ceilidh @kwind Thanks for viewing... it's fun to hear the names of the other's flying teams! :)

Well done. The repeating shapes work well.
