Just one more before I clutter off into non flickr mode.
Yesterday Nancy Rose , myself and hubby attended the Air Show in Shearwater NS. The wind was particularly nippy and the sky, as far as photos were concerned was pretty gray. That said the aerial displays by the Snow Birds was impressive as was the aerobatics display that followed them. I am posted a couple from this event today as I shall be non flickring most of the week again I suspect!
Officially known as the Canadian Forces 431 Air Demonstration Squadron, the Snowbirds are Canada's military aerobatics or air show flight demonstration team whose purpose is to "demonstrate the skill, professionalism, and teamwork of Canadian Forces personnel". The squadron is under the jurisdiction of the Canadian Forces Air Command and is based in CFB Moose Jaw, near Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. The Snowbirds are the first Canadian air demonstration team to be designated as a squadron.

The above image is a scan from an original Kodachrome™ slide. The default size is 2000 x 1250 pixels, so clicking on the photo will enlarge it for better viewing.
The original image comes from my slide collection, amassed over the past 40+ years. They are a combination of my own photographs and ones acquired through trades or purchases.
I created this Photostream in 2017 for the purpose of holding my slide collection as an archive, as otherwise they would just remain in binders and boxes, not being enjoyed by anyone, myself included.
Comments are welcome.

My share of Airshow shots. :) Blue Angels performed at California Capital Airshow earlier this month. Due to distance differences, #5 appeared smaller, so I can't line them up perfectly. But hey, at least their tails were pretty much aligned.
This is probably the most precisely straight partline I've ever done. It looks like stock, if stock scalps came with alpaca.
Gallarus Oratory, a 1200 year old building on the Dingle Peninsula which has survived perfectly apart from a slight sagging of the roof. I loved the precision of the window and door lining up like this...
HTT!

April 1976. Precision National GP10 3445 sits at the East Park engine house at Conway, Pennsylvania. Precision National was another rail equipment leasing company in the 70s and 80s before going bankrupt.
M-FWPR sits at Yard Center with KCSM 4527, a rare Grey KCS De Mexico AC4400 The crew had just been informed to tie down after only making it from Villa Grove to Yard Center in about 6 hours. Precision Railroading takes a back seat in some cases, it seems.
Very clean looking cutaway on an old wreck.
Different wreck at Pin Mill in Suffolk, Fascinating place with loads to look at I've only been here twice once tide in once tide out and took 3 different cameras over the course of two trips.
Looking at the 16 mega pixel Pentax K5 llS, a 24 mega pixel Nikon D7100 and the full frame Nikon D800E.
If anyone knows of any similar places to this in Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk please leave a comment I would love to visit all of them.
Seen arriving Oshkosh, WI as part of the 2016 Wisconsin Special Olympics Truck Convoy. Always a great event!!

I took this shot because I was curious what the squirrel had in its mouth. Turned out to be an old pecan it had dug up. I thought the 2 teeth holding the nut looked very cool so kept the shot.

Precision National SD24 6302 on the BN at Clyde, Illinois on an unknown day in May 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in October 1959 as Southern SD24 2504 ( c/n 15600 ) on EMD Order 5606. It was renumbered by the Southern to 6302. It was purchased by PNC during January 1978 and put into a lease pool, first leased to the Milwaukee Road and later to the BN. During 1979 it was sent to the Milwaukee Road for rebuilding. During the rebuilding the turbocharger and dynamic brakes were removed, resulting in an 1800 horsepower locomotive. Precision classed it as a SD10, numbered it 1802, and leased it to the BN for about a year. It was later leased to the C&NW and ultimately purchased by the C&NW, becoming C&NW SD18R 6624.
Como decía fotos atrás, las golondrinas son buenas voladoras, y se mueven rápidas y con gran precisión, tanto para beber agua con vuelos rasantes como para cazar insectos o dar de comer al vuelo a sus polluelos, en este caso uno tan desarrollado como el progenitor.
Por otro lado me satisface la acutancia (o precisión) de este objetivo todoterreno, de esos que tan malas opiniones reciben. La imagen es un recorte de una foto con focal de 250mm, a unos 12 o 15 metros de las golondrinas y disparando a pulso con enfoque manual. Lo único que no me gusta es el extraño bokeh que ha quedado con el diafragma a f/9.
