Let me see what spring is like

Thanks Armando. All the images are from the same shoot in San Pedro. A few planes appeared from nowhere and started playing around over our heads.

Thanks Jørgen. I can hear Frank Sinatra singing away whenever I see the photo. The other images are from the same shoot. Tim, the silhouette, and I were shooting at the Korean Bell which overlooks LA Harbor, Catalina Island and the Pacific, when some WWII vintage planes suddenly appeared and started performing for us. 



I know, It needs prop blur ... but the planes appeared so suddenly I didn't have time to contemplate proper shutter speeds.
