Had the pleasure of seeing these guys perform at Lakehurst Air Station in New Jersey. Absolutely amazing. Nice captures.

You could use a little Photoshop magic on the photo with the moon on the left. Try selecting just the moon, and carefully lighten in so it stands out better. If not overdone, this can work like a charm.

Thanks Jay. By the time they started flying you had to shoot into the sun. Not a lot of time for making adjustments. Over the moon was shot while they were circling around for another run at the runway
I will try and post more often!!!!!

I usually don't do much editing to my shots. I will take a look at it though I don't want to over do it since your Eye is drawn to the brighter subjects first!! I want to keep the Blue Angels the main focal point!

Nice set Hoss. The Blue Angels are spectacular to watch. I especially love the roar of those powerful engines. They'll be here at Smyrna Airport this weekend. I live about 2 miles from the airport, so we will get buzzed a lot in the next few days during practice and the live shows. My wife always freaks out because of they're noise and low altitudes when they fly over. Me...I love it.
