I know Feb has come and gone....but I did get a chance to take a friend out to the marina then. Vince has been working to understand some camera basics with a nice point 'n shoot camera in hopes that he will be well prepared to deal with an SLR in the near future. I included him in one of these shots, to show his intense concentration of his task at hand......the day was pleasant, light was reasonable and we both came back with some nice memories......enjoy !

[color=#000000]Beautiful shots. Thanks for sharing.

Yes very nice shots Ken...

The last shot I noticed the boat did not have it's name on the stern but along the port side near the stern.  I don't think I have seen too many do it that way.

Not sure if that is a boat or a ship, I think a ship carries a boat or boats or perhaps the classification between a boat and a ship goes by length or tonnage.   :)

Again great shots of a beautiful area Ken.   ;)

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

you should have popped by Comox CFB while you where there... more than 16 armed CF-18s on the flight line as well as 3 CC-130's with refueling pods, on top of the usually prominent CC-115, CH-149, DHC-6, and CP-140... for those of you who don't know them by Canadian code name DHC-5, EH-101, Twin otter, P-3.

Were you there today to see that....I know we had 6 Hornets in for the Olympic security but never heard about 18 of them being here....saw two Hercs....a couple of twin Otters, Bufs and101's....two or three Auroras....all in the past three weeks..........

WOw what a beautiful marina and some gorgeous boats in the shots.  I can't wait to get my boat.  I cruise Craigslist everyday just to look at pictures of boats and dream   

I love the life at sea...(go figure, I'm a Marine haha)

most of the time they where in the air, i just happened to speak to a local, he told me there was 18, i only saw 12, the other 6 where airborne

.......... i just happened to speak to a local, he told me there was 18, i only saw 12, the other 6 where airborne

You are speaking to a local, I live 7 mins from the base and we could hear every departing f-18 that went out, ..... I'm not so sure that there were 18 of them....I did get some poor images of half a dozen sitting on the apron but never more than that.....

i saw 12 of them parked when i was there, and since you are a local... when do the snowbirds go for their camp there???

Do You Drive a white pickup???

Nah, no white pick-up.....Snowbirds come in for spring work-ups.....April 6th-23rd....will endeavor to get shots as always.....
Sometimes one can get that lucky shot............From Last Year

.........and a few more ...

Great shots Ken!! 

I love the last shot!!
