First, one of the Vanderbilt LifeFlight helicopters left on another mission. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Another+Mission.jpg.html Then, I found a friendly young lady who was about to make her first tandem skydiving jump. She agreed to let me take her picture. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Ready+for+First+Jump.jpg.html I watched as the instructor donned his parachute in the area where the chutes are repacked after each jump. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Instructor+Dons+Chute.jpg.html And then, I watched as the pilot and passengers boarded the Cessna Caravan jump aircraft. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Loading+Up.jpg.html All with the Fuji X-E1 and Fujinon 27/2.8 Pancake lens, ISO 200 Comments and critiques welcomed. -- Jim Nichols Tullahoma, TN USA
