Air Show Pictures..........Flying In Formation - 04-02-2005, 11:49 PM


Here are a few of my 400+ pictures I took at the air show. One of the bombers was down so I never got to take pictures of it flying, but hopefully Monday I will be able too. They took me up anyway in a flight of 4 around Clear Lake. It was tough because the plane I was in had a gold tint to the windows.

This is my dad (R) and I (L).











Flying over Baybrook Mall.






This is flying. We were very close in formation.

Nice...they're all nice. There's something about the shot of the controls that I really like. Turning that into a B&W with a slight sepia tone would be interesting.

Wow! Those are awesome! I saw the planes flying around yesterday morning and was thinking of you. I saw that formation flying around, so I should have waved! :lol: What a fantastic experience!!!

BTW, I disabled the smilies in your original post so it would show the photo of you and your dad. I can tell you two had a great time!

Impressive array of very clear pictures. The one of you behind the machine gun is intimidating, especially given your seemingly benign smile.

BTW, if that's you, who's your Avatar?

HAHA I never really picked up that I was smiling, maybe it was because we haven't left the ground yet!

I change my avatar every month or so.
I shoot for the Texans and that is one of the pictures took. You can see more on my web site.
