I dug through and found a few more pics I thought were okay.
Again, these are photos, I took around town here in San Diego where we have a plethora of aircraft. Well, we have a lot of military vehicles from land, sea and both.
These aircraft are typically flying low around town "on patrol" or maneuvers. Now I must admit, as close as some of these aircraft look, they are a safe distance from the ground, I just happen to have a very nice telephoto lens that brings them closer so I can capture the details.
The Blue Angels were performing a practice rehearsal in El Centro before their 2015 season, so I had a chance to see and meet them and the crew, what an experience. BTW they were really close.
These UH-60 Sikorsky Blackhawks you will find flying over San Diego everyday 24/7. They patrol around North Island, which is across the Bay from downtown, all the way down to the US Border. So it is very common to see these, at very low altitudes. It is cool to see the different configurations of them as they fly by
Now this is obviously not aircraft, but it was that moment I had to take a photo because it would have been too hard to describe and not have been close. Too much heat waves coming off of the water for me to publish this one, but still a pretty unique view of 2 boats. I called it My Big Brother. The 2nd ship is about 5 miles offshore while the closer one is maybe 3/4 to a mile offshore.
Enjoy!
