Salida Colorado Airshow Fall 2023
May 1, 2024 09:56:27 #
Mountain town Salida, Colorado, on the banks of the Arkansas River, has a small airfield: Harriet Alexander Field is at 7523' at the base of the Collegiate Peaks in Chaffee County. It has a runway 7348 feet long. We enjoyed a great airshow last fall. These shots are with Sony a7iii and a Tamron 150-500, handheld. (Critique welcome. Could have used a faster shutter speed to stop props, I guess. More interested in the action and drama.)

Very nice.
Thanks. Tiny airport. No commercial passenger flights. 3 hr drive to Denver International. But the region is beautiful.
