I've been busy with life lately and haven't been around much, but I'm glad to be back. On my way home today I pulled over to thoroughly enjoy these folks practicing their skydiving skills. Personally I will be happy to stand firmly on the ground and capture the moment with my camera. It was really a sight to see.

These are great, Mom! I am gonna go get some of these shots myself someday. You beat me to it! Looks like a lot of tandem jumpers.You captured them all very well. I agree, I think I will stay on the ground and shoot them coming down. I have no desire to ever free fall.

Great shot Michelle! I notice that all 4 were tandem jumpers as well. When I was younger I apirations of trying this, but now, I'm content to watch. We watched the Parasails in Hawaii last week, that looks fun as well.
Thanks for Sharing these Michael.
