Airshow by accident
Monday, October 10, 2011 at 11:00PM Over the weekend we decided to take visiting relatives to Ghirardelli's Chocolate factory. It was my first driving experiment after surgery.
One mistake.. there was an air show in the city around the Pier area and that meant there was no way to anywhere near the Chocolate factory. After driving around for an hour and realizing there was no way to park anywhere close by, not to mention the "pee pee" calls from the kids, we had to make a hasty retreat back out of the pier area.
Luckily when we stopped almost close to the freeway entrance, the planes were still circling around and the camera was in the trunk!
Quickly mounted the 70-200 and clicked a few shots from the sidewalk. The wife was surprised by my impulsiveness but when we came home and she saw the photos, her jaw dropped..
"How did you take that one?" she asked.
Told her that support in buying the 70-200mm is much appreciated. When she realized that she was the proud financier of such worthy equipment, she was beaming!
Next year, we are going to the airshow and parking ourselves at a vantage location for photograph session!
