These are some pics I took with my new 70-200 4.0L lens. Enjoy:

Let me know if someone wants higher resolutions. I made about 200 pictures of the whole air-show but I don't have space to upload them all.

I always loved working on the bay during Fleet Week. Like a ring-side seat for some great aerial manuvers. Nothing like being on a barge in the middle of the bay, and having the Blue Angels do a fly-over!

Thanks. I was too lazy to drive over to TI or the city on the weekend. Of course on the Saturday morning news then they tell about all the free concerts in the city over the weekend. If I'd known about those I'd have gone.

They are so incredibly loud One did a nearly sound-of-speed fly-by, you could see the stuff around the plane

I live a few miles south of San Francisco and they literally fly over my house. They were extremely loud. I loved it.
