Allright everybody!
Here's a nice picture from the Blue Angels flying over the Battle of Midway commemoration ceremony.
I added some contrast and a red photo filter.

Warning: this wallpaper might cause dizziness...Seriously, check out this shot over San Francisco. That's Alcatraz prison to the bottom left.
Try this one on your monitor and let me know how it makes you feel...

Here's your chance to fly with the Blue Angels. Sit with #4 as you fly over San Francisco with the Golden Gate bridge in the distance. Outstanding.
Blue Angel F/A-18C 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper
Hello, I'm Pieter from Belgium, the guest author while JT is away.
This is my first wallpaper. I hope to see the Blue Angels some time while they are showing their skills. Tell me what you think about my wallpaper!

Great shot of Blue Angel #5 upside down in home town of Pensacola, Florida.Another reason I love this shot is that I got married on this same beach just a few miles down.
Blue Angels F/A-18C Four Ship Cockpit View 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper
This shot lets you fly along in the cockpit with the United States Navy Blue Angels. The Blue Angels fly F/A-18C Hornets painted in the famous blue and gold. I'd love to get a ride with these guys.The photo required adjustments in levels and contrast. I added a slight saturation and sharpening to finish it off.
Blue Angels: A Year In The Life
The show is called "Blue Angels: A Year In The Life" and it chronicles how a pilot goes from flying Navy fleet aircraft to flying an F-18C with the Blue Angels demonstration team.
What makes the show so amazing is that the film crew has complete access to the BA team. You follow the team through their initial training in El Centro, CA to their final show in Pensacola, FL. Have you ever seen a BA preflight briefing? You will now and prepare to be humbled by their dedication and professionalism.
You also get HD camera footage from inside the cockpit and it's STUNNING. I can't recommend this show highly enough. If you don't have it, buy it now. You won't be disappointed.
Friday Video: Blue Angel High Speed Low Pass
Check this out. Here's a few shots of Blue Angel solo pilots doing high-speed low passes in San Francisco bay. Absolutely awesome.
Blue Angel Photo Op From Fat Albert 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper
I don't know about you, but this is pretty cool. Can you imagine standing in the back of a C-130 (in this case Blue Angel C-130 Fat Albert) and having an F/A-18D flying a few feet away from you? I love doing aviation photography and this would be a dream opportunity.
Blue Angels Solo Extreme Vortex 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper
Check this out! What you are seeing is completely by engineering design. With a high angle of attack to the relative wind, you're seeing the incredible vortex wake sweeping over the leading edge extensions and down the wing. This allows the aircraft to fly at very high angles of attack and not stall. Amazing...
