The Blue Angel's Show at the US Naval Academy, Annapolis, Maryland

A good friend of mine will use any excuse to get out on the water, and the Blue Angels show over the US Naval Academy is a better reason than most. So, rather than watching from land, a few friends, along with, what seemed like every other boat in Maryland, anchored out just off of the Naval Academy for what proved to be an amazing show, just a few days before the US Naval Academy’s graduation ceremony. The show itself took place on 20 May, 2015, however there is also a practice day, usually the day before.

All photos were taken with a Canon Rebel T1i, with an EFS 18-55mm Lens. I’m looking for a better lens for these types of events, but my telephoto lens seemed to big given how close we were to some of the action, so if you have any suggestions, please do share.

Rather than a lot of words, I think I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
