[singlepic id=1509 w=480 float=left] Cherry Festival Airshow 2015 – Air Force Thunderbirds. I’m surprised I got this picture at all because of how they came over from the side. I believe this was the full afterburner run, thus the orange flame seen in the jet. Picture taken with Sony a6000,… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1508 w=480 float=left] Cherry Festival Airshow 2015 – Air Force Thunderbirds. These guys were the main event this year (vs. the more common Blue Angels) so I have a few shots of them to share, though I was using the new Sony and the lens I have for it… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1507 w=480 float=left] One of the stunt planes from the Cherry Festival Airshow 2015 edition. I like the color scheme of these guys (only showing one of the group of three). Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm lens @ 200mm, 1/1000 sec shutter, f/8, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1506 w=480 float=left] This sunset (now with sailboat!) was already in the queue before I developed the Sunday plan… From the Grand Haven breakwall on the North side of the channel, which might actually mean this is from Ferrysburg. I was over there for a paddle and got back… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1505 w=480 float=left] A second shot of the Algoway, slightly better positioned to get the lighthouse in the picture. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm lens @ 80mm, 1/400 sec shutter, f/11, ISO 100
[singlepic id=1504 w=480 float=left] Just happened to be heading out for some kayaking when the Algoway was backing out of the Grand Haven channel. Thanks to the giant ship, you can’t see smoke from the recently extinguished camper fire in Grand Haven State Park. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1503 w=480 float=left] What can I say, I like my sunset pictures – maybe I should start a Sunday-Sunset theme. This one from inland a bit around the Saugatuck / Douglas area. Taken a few weeks ago (6/20). Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm lens @ 18mm, 1/80… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1502 w=480] Last lighthouse for a bit… maybe. The light(house) in the middle of the Manitou Passage about three miles off the mainland and off the shore of North Manitou Island. As you can sort of see, it’s a residence for birds now and thanks to that it stinks… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1500 h=480] This picture is so-so, but it fits the lighthouse theme… the Round Island Lighthouse opposite Mackinac Island across the channel there. I’ve successfully watched fireworks from this lighthouse, which I highly recommend. Picture taken with Pentax Optio W60, lens @ 6.1mm (34mm eq), f/6.1, 1/20 sec, ISO… Continue reading
[singlepic id=1499 w=480] The South Manitou Lighthouse from the water upon arrival after one of our early and poorly coordinated (read: stupid) crossings. We actually saved most of the stupid for the return trip which had worse conditions and way more distance between the three of us such that we… Continue reading
