2024 is the year where I caught three foreign air demonstration teams, the Red Arrows (🇬🇧) for my first time, the Frecce Tricolori (🇮🇹) for the second time and the Thunderbirds (🇺🇸) for the third time. #airshow #thunderbirds #redarrows #freccetricolori #aircraft

2024 marked the last year the #CF18Demo would put on shows. The striking scheme commemorated the 100th anniversary of the RCAF, and the evolving (digital) battle space the Canadian Armed Forces operated in. Taken at Gatineau, Quebec.

Ariel, Ursula and Triton from the #lego #littlemermaid Royal Clamshell set. Shot with a Nikon #zfc and 40mm F/2.8 AF-S Micro Lens. Combined in Lightroom Classic to attempt to create an HDR image, but I'm not certain of the results.

If you're in the US, you'll probably fill up on turkey tomorrow. After that, here's a list of model train shows you can check out instead of heading to the crowded mall.

...and if you're outside the US, there's an open house in Toronto that maybe you can check out.

This afternoon my father passed after a year-and-a-half long struggle with his health. He was a police officer for 37 years, and he was also a sport shooter. He taught us how to shoot, and I shared his love of aviation, photography, and the outdoors.

Perfect timing, wrong element to focus on. I chose to follow the 5-plane section of the Red Arrows 5-4 pass. #airshow #redarrows #aviation #jets #aerobatics

I’ll be knocking off 2/3 of the military Air Demonstration Teams I want to see this year. I’ll only be missing the Blue Angels and the Patrouille de France. If negotiations go well then I may be able to catch the Blue Angles in Fargo.
