Snowbirds in Kingston, Ontario, Canada

Members of 431 Air Demonstration Squadron Team (aka the Snowbirds) were in Kingston Ontario Canada this evening (June 18th, 2008). Flying over Lake Ontario, the team flew around our UNESCO World Heritage site, Fort Henry, helping to mark the first sunset ceremony of the season.

As always, our Armed Forces Ambassadors put on an excellent show and made me proud to be a Canadian as well as a retired member of the Armed Forces.

I love digital cameras for events such as this...where else can you pop off over 500 shots and not have to develop film and trash the out of focus ones....cause these "birds" are hard to catch at times!

View Large if you can :-)

I am heading back to get some shots of fireworks so I will be getting around to your photos in the next day or two. Have a super evening!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all know that I appreciate your comments, awards and invites "-)
