I edited today's pics before editing yesterday, so here they are. Weather was great, but the trees and light poles around the Marina are making it tough to find a good, close spot.

Not an exciting batch but I was very excited about getting out there today and finally using the camera for what I hope will be a busy season.

Thanks. Camera battery died when Frontier came in, and though I got a couple 3/4 angle shots on the quick-change, none were crisp enough for editing.

Hope you guys don't mind the 1200 wide!

WOW! Really amazing pix here!
I take it you were at the marina just off the GCP?

But what kind of lens were you using? Those are REALLY fantastic!

Yeah, the eastern end of the Marina, using a 20D and a 100-400mm lens. Thanks again!

Hmm thinking about heading to LGA wed or thurs. Need to check weather and such. And hope they are using runway 4 so I dont get grounded by range. :(

If you do, runway 4 is only useful in the morning if you prefer good light. Otherwise try Landing Lights Park two blocks away.

Great light there Phil. Nice set all around, but the UA is top notch.
