Airplanes > Newsy  > Airplanes > Abbotsford Airshow 2006
Sunday August 13th, 2006. A very hot and HAZY day. Most of the aerial photos were taken from about 500 meters(1600 feet) back from the fence line as I had to stay near our vehicle. As a result I did not get the resolution I was hoping for... wait till next year. It's a tough place to take aerial photos in any case as the runway to sun alignment is not very good. Great crowd and very easy to get to and leave from. Too bad Highway #1 on a Sunday evening is such a disaster. When are they going to make it 6 or even 8 lanes?

Update: I recently viewed this gallery on a system other than my own where the monitor was not calibrated to gray scale and I've realised some of these images can look really bad. The post processing I had to do to recover from under exposure left all kinds of noise and artifacts in several of the aerial images. Next year...

Newsy > Our local police chopper, the one that I have seen three times now in our area circling for 30 to 40 minutes.  It's really very quiet compared to most helicopters.

Newsy > Navy Prowler.  Too dang many people in front to get a decent picture.

Newsy > More National Guard F-16's.  It was the screaming Eagles that caught my eye.
