Point Mugu Airshow 2007- Vaporfest!

I went to the Point Mugu airshow on Sunday and it was AWESOME! I have never seen such a great opportunity to get vapor shots in my whole life. Here are a few samples. I am in the process of editing for my website right now.

Good to hear - My father in law surprised me with a phone call saying he was in California going to an airshow, I knew it had to be Riverside or Mugu.

I'll be in Mojave in about 3 weeks for a few days, if I get up your way I'll stop by....

Cool. I am just finishing up my Riverside edits and am building the pages now. The whole show should be up by tomorrow at the latest. Then it's on to the Mugu edits for those galleries.

It did in the late afternoon for the Thunderbirds and the Heritage Flight a bit. But the vapor was worth it.

Amazing pictures evan! Love them all, especially the flame shot at the end.
