Blue Angels + Golden Gate Park

Gallery

I snapped a few photos of the Blue Angels Fleet Week show on Saturday with a lens I’ve been waiting to try out, a 500mm f/4. It was really one of the coolest things I’ve seen, and the pictures turned out pretty well. Afterward went to Golden Gate park for Kevin and Coley’s wedding pre-party, and then back to my place for dinner.

    I thought the 500mm would be even closer.

      They were pretty far away. :) The best were when they went right above, about 2/3rds down.
