US ThunderBIRDS OPPOSING HIGH SPEED PASS

The Thunderbirds Opposing Pass is a high-risk, high pass meer feet apart, showcasing extreme pilot trust, precision, and aircraft control for a dramatic visual effect. The pilots maintain near-vertical flight, one slightly offset, creating the illusion of nearly touching at show center, requiring split-second timing and coordination. The Thunderbirds opposing pass, specifically the Opposing Knife-Edge Pass is a high-risk, high reward where two solo F-16s approached head-on,…

Bald Eagle CLOSEUP @ Blackwater NWR

For this Post I am showing a Bald Eagle Close-up. I took this image with a Canon 1D mkIV with a 1.4x Teleconverter. The Canon 1D mkIV also has a 1.3 cropped sensor. So with the 1D mk IV with a 1.4X Teleconverter and the 1.3x cropped sensor it was like shooting with a @ 728 mm camera.

HaLloween In my nEighborhood

We have quite a few homes with Halloween decorations in my neighborhood. This home had one of the largest Halloween decorations. I used my iPhone and shot a 5 image series to make the panorama.
