Pictures from Last Saturday

[[2068]]

We went round to Sandown Bay last Saturday, and spotted this rather strange looking cloud formation. What could possibly have caused it?

Hmmm, this is looking suspicious. Why are all those planes flying so close together, and errm, they appear to be heading this way!

Quick, duck!

We could smell the fumes as they went overhead.

Up, up, and away.

A final flypast.

Then, just as they had finished, Argonautical turned up! (Nice timing, Jason /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif). Being as the anchorage was now getting crowded (3 boats) and bouncy, we headed back to East Head for tea. Fab day out, though.

Crickey, very good photos.

Some great photos!

We were anchored near Thorney Island - saw the smoke, but was too late to head over there. Completely forget they were on last weekend. We were in prime spot last year for the same event though:

Sunset on Saturday night was stunning:

Excellent pictures, put mine to shame of the Red Arrows at the Farnborough airshow.

Ah, but don't you need some boats in the pic for this forum?!?

 

[Scubadoo]

Of course and hence no pics.

Very impressed with photo quality. What camera do you have?

Yep, you see you would have missed that with a hard top

Yup, a not very up-to-date Canon 350D with an EF-S 17-85 IS USM Lens.
Would prefer a 50D, but I think Santa might well pass that one by.

The lens did a reasonable job, especially as it was quite rocky on the boat, and the planes weren't pausing for anyone.
