The Boston-Portsmouth Air Show practice last Friday was far more than a warm-up session for the events on Saturday and Sunday.
“Service Credit Union was proud to host more than 100 kids from Make-A-Wish and the Brain Injury Association of New Hampshire and give back to our community in such a positive way,” Lori Holmes, marketing manager for SCU said. “It is an event we are really proud to sponsor and it seems everyone is really enjoying themselves.” ~ source

  4. Now, let me get this straight. This dragonfly is living, correct?

  5. I can't seen to catch a shot of a butterfly or dragon/damselfly this year to save my soul. Your first shot is stunning. We missed the air show over Memorial Day weekend here in town. I love watching the Thunderbird-type flyers!

  7. Love the monarch and clouded sulpher shots!
    While your critter shots are wonderful, I have to say these air shots are pretty awesome. :)
    Crazy birds - I'd think the noise alone would keep them away!
