Waiting London, ON September 2023 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
Many, many photos were taken. So many, in fact, that it’ll be a while before I can sift through them and process them through my usual workflow (it’s a thing, I’m a bit obsessed, but I’ve been told it’s not contagious.)
I did manage to grab a few quick ones from the morning’s static display. It was drizzling a bit, and I was trying to keep my camera from getting soaked, so I stuck with the iPhone until things dried up.
Thankfully Mother Nature ultimately cooperated and allowed me to flail my Nikon with reckless abandon for the rest of the day. It was glorious.
I have a thing for the F-16 Fighting Falcon (aka Viper). This one’s a C model, and whatever the generation, there’s an aesthetic to this airframe that seems to tug at my soul every time I’m around one.
It seemed almost peaceful as it sat quietly on the flight line, biding its time until it could return to the skies.
Soon enough, Viper. Soon enough.
More to come…
