alliance airshow

Some military hardware and other general planes at the Alliance Airshow today. We had to leave before the MIG-17 and Blue Angels flew, and were slightly disappointed that the Army helicopters didn’t blow things up, but all in all it was a fantastic airshow, especially for the price. Definitely consider going next year, if you’re into planes.

While there is only one picture of them here, one of the neatest acts was the Red Baron Squadron, whose relatively slow planes put on a very unique and graceful performance, and were really a lot of fun to watch.

the jackpot

Had a fairly good day today at the Holistic Gardens, after blanking a bit recently. These 10 shots are really only a sampling of what was there. I found the most patient dragonfly ever (1, 2), the smallest anole ever (3, 4, 5) and shot a more normal sized anole @ almost 1:1 (10). I’ve also updated the Holistic Gardens Gallery with some of the better shots over the past 6 months or so.
