This is a link my buddy sent me. It's obviously not on the topic of spearfishing, but it is definitely a photography extravaganza. This guy, whoever it is, is good. Breathlesssight, I'm sure you'll enjoy the part about the DSLR camera being the camera of choice. I hope you all enjoy.

Wow thanks so much for posting that. Tell your buddy I said thanks. I grew up around aviation. Dad was a helicopter pilot so I've been around the airshows. It never gets old. I can't believe that they flew the F-22 for the crowd though. Lucky.

There's a video floating around of that high speed pass through the bay.

Here it is, you can see where the guy with the camera was relative to the big boat that blocked one of his shots.

Awesome pics....I've always loved the Blue Angels.

One of the last pics kinda gets me, where he said 'All 6 accounted for".....I was a MCAS Beufort for the airshow there last spring, and saw the #6 plane crash, watched the whole thing....dipped below the treeline and huge fireball....still runs through me head sometimes. My brother does airshows in an Apache, so it kinda hits close to home.

God, I would love to have been there. I've seen plenty of Blue Angels shows, but a show over an airfield is nothing like using San Francisco Bay.
