Is this not one of the coolest pictures you have seen?

I was at a blue angel practice run and managed to take over 300 photos. I took some amazing photos but this is my favorite by far.

Let my know what you guys think of this


My Favorite By Far



Look at the propellers, what an amazing view.



Notice, there is actually 2 jets here!






Sadly the closest i got to a mid-flight exchange















Right before they all split-out of formation






Now doesnt this just make you feel patriotic?

 

Wow that's actually a great pic!

Why is it so low to the ground, did it just take off?

 

nope! its actually during the middle of their performance! it just did a fly by exchange and i happened to get it that close to the pier!

 

Now we wait for the day everyone on that pier claims for hearing loss

 

it actually wasnt THAT bad, it made your ears ring a little but other then that nothing that would blow out an ear drum

edit: im going to probably upload more, but the top one will always be my favorite

Expected Screamer.


Win.


Those are some awesome pictures. I have always wanted to fly with the Blue Angels.

 

Screamer outside of SF = fight back with infractions

OT: I love the first two, the motion blur you captured was awesome. Why were you taking photographs, were you hired as a photographer of the event or something?

 

nope i just love taking photos i find it very relaxing and sastifying especially when you get great shots. but that first one still amazes me even to the fact that the camera only focused on the jet and put a blur on everything else, which, in my oppinion, makes it more appealing to my eyes

 

Really love the fourth one where they are all aligned diagonally, but really these are all great shots that look professional.

 

why thank you i really take pride in most of these shots. maybe ill have a back up career if forensics doesnt work out for me

 

Jesus, the first two looked so amazing that it seems like they were photoshopped!

Wish I was at that shop, I have a sweetspot for planes.

 

Love the pictures. it blows my mind how skilled some of those pilots are. flying in perfect arrangements like that.

 

I was just going to post saying that! It's just astonishing how they do it and imagine, one little mistakes has it go colliding with the others.

Looks like you put up more of these shots. I love the second and the patriotic picture after the first one the most.

 

They are some amazing shots, I'm curious to know what camera you are using?

 

Wow Fang those are some sweet pics! i have always wanted to see the blue angels in person! How long did the show last?

 

This is I'm pretty sure the camera I was using http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Canon+-...lack/1980124.p?id=1218304066943&skuId=1980124

It's my parents camera that I took right before the show started because I wanted to take the pictures.

The show lasted only about 45 minutes however.

 

It's not the coolest picture I have ever seen..but it's pretty nice...

 

Really liked the first picture, you should edit the photos and do a little colour correction, the colours look really dull, would be nice if you bumped them up

 

pssh why ruin an already perfect picture! but im color blind >.<

 

Heres an example of what i mean:
