That was fun...traffic was not - 07-04-2008, 01:13 AM


First time....that was fun, but I totally understand now about parking out by the road and getting a jump early on leaving.
It looks like the regulars just camp out and stay an hour or so.

Anyway, I think the sacrifice of being by the fence was worth it....

I made it too, and met David, Janice and Terry. - 07-04-2008, 03:04 PM


Thanks for the 'Heads-Up' David!

...But I stayed up by the fence, and left just before getting trapped in by the throngs!

Just a few of the Birds (War) I wanted to shoot.
And...I wanted to play around with exposure times with the props.

Don't let the 2 dimensional effect of this one fool you! They were not this close together!!!

Ok a few of mine
the first one isnt fireworks in the normal sense they are being shot from a bi plane it was pretty cool. I wanted to do some wide stuff but thanks to some MORON that decided to bring his 22 ft Ski Natique into the lot it kinda put the brakes on that.

B-24A Liberator



The view before the boat arrived.



Plane trailing sparklers, heavy crop and shutter speed too slow but it looked neat.

I stayed up until just before the wing walker. Had to get up and get ready for work at 4:30 this morning. I did discover two things 1) the bed cover makes great shade and I need to get a Bigma for my camera next year!

There is a large construction site now where the red X is, so the parking for that area is about 20% of what it was a month ago so you might want to get there a little earlier.

EDIT: Just realized this was a year old. My bad.

Thats ok, I was thinking of starting a new one anyway!

Thanks for the info. I haven't been down that side of the airport lately. I'm hoping to be there.
I got there pretty early last year. Up by the fence. I almost got parked in since I needed to leave after the airshow.
