... nice close up ... saw the same grizzly on 7/27 along the road leaving Two Jacks mid morning ...
... I participated in that event a few times ... many years ago .. and since swimming is not my forte and because, as your photo shows so well, the start is such a challenge, I always waited at the back of the pack so as not to get in the way of the good swimmers. Note that the different colors of the caps denote the age group of the competitors. Great capture of the event.
... not sure, but judging the locations by comparing your shots and mine, it seems like the positions were close.
... among the crowds ....
... I was there during the two week window, as well, but did not get any pictures that are even close to your fabulous shots. Very well done!
Another informative and beautiful post ...
... nice set ... thanks for sharing ... first time I've can remember seeing a straight axle Buick!
...great set ... this year's bloom seems to be extra robust thanks to all the recent rains!

... thank you for the outstanding post ... I really miss the yearly Blue Angel visits to the now closed Marine Corps Air Station at El Toro CA that is very near my house... practices frequently had planes flying directly over the house!
... agree, among your best .... he made it. LB
