Hey all,
had a great day with great weather down on the beach. It's still tough to shoot b/c of the sun, but here are a couple I thought were decent. Feel free to check out the rest on my flickr page. Thanks!

Canadian Skyhawks Parachute Team (Talk about leg lock!)


Heavy Metal Jet Team MiG-17 Burner On


US Coast Guard Rescue Demo


Super Hornet High Speed Pass


Marine CH-46 Sea Knight


A-10 & P-51 Heritage Flight


A-10 Pulling G's


Thunderbirds Sneak Pass


Hard to pick 8 out of 2,000 shots overall, I have posted many more on my Flickr page. Thanks for looking!

Nice job! Shooting into the sun is a real pain, but you've got some good captures there. The Canadian Skyhawks are very impressive - I have a similar photo from another show they attended. Good catch on the Hornet vapor too.

great pics, the Heavy Metal team was just up here at Pease last weekend. Snort had that Mig right off the ground on Fri's practice day, what a sexy demo

Awesome pics. Unfortunately I had to miss this air show. Atlantic City is only like maybe 45 minutes away but my son got sick so I had to stay home with him. Thanks for the pics!

the MiG was really impressive, i've never seen anyone fly that low...



That's a shame spyder (I hope you're son's feeling better), I've been to the last 3 and the weather was by far the best this year. BTW, I'm right by you....I'm in Sicklerville.

This was Snort back at Oceana in 06, my first time seeing him fly. I just love the Heavy Metal paint scheme. It's great to shoot with blue skies!
