You really catch the feeling of the day in this terrific picture. Seems to be a very low pass. V

Awesome ! I've never seen the Blue Angels over in Europe - we can but hope. Wonderful capture.

Fabulous Bill. This could well be the classic and definitive Blue Angels solo shot.

Thanks Mark. This guy comes in so fast and so low I usually don't even try to photograph it. I just watch and catch the crowd's reaction. At just shy the speed of sound, you never hear it coming.

Excellent capture of this sneaky fellow about to fry the nerves of a few thousand folks looking the wrong way. I always love this part of the show! ~GMV~
