Thanks Steve.
The focal point of the Angels show is midway on the south shore of west bay. 
For years I shot from the side, a fair distance away thinking I'd have more 
chance of capturing the action. I generally shot the 600 from that vantage 
point.
This past year I was very close to the center of the action and got way more 
keepers than ever before - and they were all hand held with the 300. Both 
locations required following the action with the camera to the eye cause 
they move so fast you'd have no chance of getting it right if you didn't.

Great shot.  It's not like you have much control over you POV here, so
nice timing.

Bob - I'm not sure what the formation was but I don't think it was the 
diamond.


BVTW - we were told that because the Angels like the Traverse City area so 
much they brought along their families to enjoy the stay. They show up at 
the Cherry Festival almost every year.

Ken,
That's a nice catch and a move I don't remember from shows.
I have some difficulties figure out exactly where the planes are in
relation to one another.
I would guess a diamond formation, but the tailsof #2 and #1
(inverted) look overlapped!

 Boy, does that bring back some childhood memories.  I pretty much grew 
up on naval bases and got to see those guys fairly regularly.  It's one 
of the more thrilling spectacles I've ever seen.


And, a great shot of the action besides.  It certainly makes me wish I'd 
been there.
