The Watering Hole

Thought I'd share some of the pics I got from the roof of my house yesterday. They hold an airshow each year at an old RAF base about half a mile from my place and the runway sends the planes across the back of my garden.  8-).









Good shots, Spud.  

Just be careful.  If you happen to notice them dropping small canister shaped items, you might want to take cover.   :)
Nice shots, Spud!  I think that one photo is upside down. :D  It amazes me how the camera can catch the speed and how they fuck up the air around them, like in the photo of the one planes poop shoot.
spud,

thanks for sharing.. love the air shows... love the fighters.

the blue angels didn't come back to portland this year :-[

hopefully they will next year.

Thanks guy's. These are just a few random one's I picked out of the hundred or so photo's I took.

Want more? I'll post em if you want em.
Cool shots.

In 1993 or 1994 I worked at the Twin Falls Idaho Airport laying block, and on a Monday I was astounded to see many of those planes (or ones like them) take off because they had done an air show the day before and were heading home. I was working on a building right at the runway so I was as close as could be.
Those red planes were used yesterday during the closing ceremony of the Olympics as well (during the hand-off from Beijing to London). Cool pics!  :)
Nice photos, man!
SWEET!!!!!!
