Warplane Flyover by stray_shooter

Warplane Flyover

Over the past couple of weeks there have been flyovers by the Navy Blue Angels and the Air Force Thunderbirds around the U.S. They are saluting and honoring the medical professionals who have been working through the COVID-19 ordeals. Today in Southern California a group of vintage warplanes took to the skies to say thanks and also to salute our military veterans as today is Memorial Day here, the day on which we honor our fallen military members. I couldn't decide which I liked best, so the solution to that was a collage. It was a real attention-getter - the flyover, that is, not my collage.
Very cool! Today I saw the WWII planes flying in tribute to the veterans but didn’t get a great shot.

Beautiful collage each image perfectly capturing these wonderful WWII aircraft in flight, what a great way to thank all the health care workers and also all the fallen fighting for our freedom:)

@redy4et Thanks Elizabeth. It was pretty hard to get a shot of these planes, so I'm not surprised. Had it not been for the 600mm lens and the dehaze feature in Lightroom, I don't think I'd have gotten a good shot either.

@louannwarren Thanks Lou Ann. It was quite inspiring. The people around me were clapping and shouting.....then again that could have been the police going after people committing the unthinkable crime of sitting in the sun.
