Went to photograph seals but they are still a bit thin on the ground so got some shots of F15s bombing on the range. They use 25lb practice bombs which were impossible to see withthe naked eye from the distance the aircraft were. By watching the attitude of the aircraft on the bomb run I was able to get a couple of images as bombs were released though.

You'd better give him a call and let him know he dropped something!

Seriously though they're really cool images... only just better than seals anyway.

For anyone interested, exercise 'Low Rider' is taking place over this week and next week . This means there will be aircraft conducting flare trials each day so for photographers its a good time to go, seals and fireworks!
