Snowbirds closest approach HDR

This pass, the last of four, was right over our house near Metrotown in Burnaby, probably for the closing ceremonies of the World Police and Fire Games (or the Burnaby Blues and Roots Festival -- both events are nearby).

 

You can almost read the markings on the planes, despite the fading light (it was around 8 p.m.) and the blur from speed. I enhanced this image a bit to bring out the colour of the planes: they were pretty close to silhouettes in reality.
