Every year, on the Windward side of the island of O'ahu, during the 4th of July celebration there is a stunt pilot who wows everyone with his aerial antics. He usually does some practice flights in mid June over Kailua Beach but I have never been able to get any pictures. Today, I was in the right place at the right time and had the right lens on the camera. The photos in this gallery were taken with the Tamron 200-500 on the Nikon D50 - all shots were hand-held.
